    If you have lost the password
    If you have lost the password to login to the SEPM
    then Run the RESETPASS.bat file from the command prompt
    In the command prompt
    go to
     
    c:\program files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\tools\resetpass
    When you'll hit enter you'll see ENGLISH
     
    Close the command prompt Try logging into the SEPM
    username:admin
    password:admin
     
    Then you will get a promt to change the password

    c:\program files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\tools\resetpass.bat

    Go to teh following location and double click on the reset pass.bat and then login into the SEPM with User name: admin

    password: admin and then it would then ask for a new password

    Or you can also use the otion of Forgot password in the SEPM Console login page.

    Resetting the administrator password to admin

    You can use the resetpass.bat to reset the password for the Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager admin account.

    Note:
     If you change the admin account name to something other than admin and then subsequently run resetpass.bat, it changes the account name back to admin.
     

    To reset the administrator password

    1.Open Windows Explorer on the computer that runs Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager.
    2.Locate the <Drive>:\Program Files\Symantec\Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager\Tools folder.
    3.Double-click the resetpass.bat executable file.
    The password is reset to admin.

    4.Change the password immediately.
     

     

    Warning: Do not use the "admin" account when setting up Active Directory Authentication. You must use a new Administrator account to use Active Directory authentication. For more information, see the Symantec Technical Support knowledge base article,
