Can't Find 'Edit' Option for Password Reset?
What should I do if I can't find the 'Edit' option to reset a password?
If you're unable to find the 'Edit' option when trying to reset an end user's password, ensure you are viewing the correct profile. To access an end user's profile, click the user's name on the Customers page.
Once on the profile, navigate through the tabs in the main window to find the Security Settings where you can reset the password. This should help you locate the necessary options to proceed with the password reset.
