Password is a unique key that customers must use to access their accounts in your store, Changing password in Magento is not a big deal if you are logged in to the My Account area/Admin dashboard. I am talking about changing a customer’s password using a program. The below code will show you how to programmatically change a customer password without validating an old password.

Magento 2 new customer account is created via sign up, Also customer registration is possible via the admin panel. But, you can easily reset the password in your account.

Programmatically change customer password create a PHP file in Magento root directory using following code. Do not forget to specify the customer id and password you want to set inside the code.

## Step To Programmatically Change Customer Password in Magento 2:

```
<?php
use Magento\Framework\AppInterface;
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
try {
    require '../app/bootstrap.php';
} catch (\Exception $e) {
    echo $e->getMessage();
    exit;
}
try{
    $bootstrap = \Magento\Framework\App\Bootstrap::create(BP, $_SERVER);
    $objectManager = $bootstrap->getObjectManager();
    $appState = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\App\State');

    $customerRepositoryInterface = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Customer\Api\CustomerRepositoryInterface');
    $customerRegistry = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Customer\Model\CustomerRegistry');
    $encryptor = $objectManager->get('\Magento\Framework\Encryption\EncryptorInterface');
    $appState->setAreaCode('frontend');

    $customerId = 11; // here assign your customer id
    $password = "Dolphin123"; // set your custom password
    $customer = $customerRepositoryInterface->getById($customerId);
    $customerSecure = $customerRegistry->retrieveSecureData($customerId);
    $customerSecure->setRpToken(null);
    $customerSecure->setRpTokenCreatedAt(null);
    $customerSecure->setPasswordHash($encryptor->getHash($password, true));
    $customerRepositoryInterface->save($customer);
    echo 'Successfully Changes Your Password.';
}
catch(\Exception $e){
    print_r($e->getMessage());
}
```

**customerRepositoryInterface** is an instance of \\Magento\\Customer\\Api\\CustomerRepositoryInterface
**customerRegistry** is an instance of \\Magento\\Customer\\Model\\CustomerRegistry
**encryptor** is an instance of \\Magento\\Framework\\Encryption\\EncryptorInterface

Successfully executing this script your customer will be able to log in to their account using **“Dolphin123”** password.

This way we can update customer password in Magento2.

hope this instruction will be helpful for you.
