Cvcorv,

And why would you want to create an admin account with a random password that you then need to email somewhere?

P.S. And the explanation had best be a very good one.

@Cvcorv

Just to weigh in, there is an MS article out there which details the uses for this. Up until recently it could be done with a Group Policy preference for highly secure environments, but with MS14-025 Microsoft disabled the ability to do so. Along with this, however, they did provide a PS script to accomplish the same. There is a very narrow set of circumstances that would necessitate this, I would suggest you read both articles to ensure you fit the profile. I have had to enable this for a few customers, but only for a few. It also does not support sending by email; each encrypted password would be saved to a likewise-encrypted "master file".

As far as I know, you can edit SPAM entries to add user accounts and unlock password as many as you can.

Care to explain further @midtownbs? I fail to see how your statement adds anything to what the OP is trying to do (or was, over a year ago).

I am sure some smart-ass will chime in with a "great product" you really need to "fix" this.
