Configure the change password URL.
Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later
What it does
Setting the policy sets the URL for users to change their password after seeing a warning in the browser. The password protection service sends users to the URL (HTTP and HTTPS protocols only) you designate through this policy. For Google Chrome to correctly capture the salted hash of the new password on this change password page, make sure your change password page follows these guidelines ( https://www.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/create-amazing-password-forms ). Turning the policy off or leaving it unset means the service sends users to https://myaccount.google.com to change their password. On Microsoft® Windows®, this policy is only available on instances that are joined to a Microsoft® Active Directory® domain, joined to Microsoft® Azure® Active Directory® or enrolled in Chrome Enterprise Core. On macOS, this policy is only available on instances that are managed via MDM, joined to a domain via MCX or enrolled in Chrome Enterprise Core. Example value: https://mydomain.com/change_password.html

- The OMA-URI is an inferred ADMX-backed Policy CSP candidate derived from the source ADMX file name and policy name.
- Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
- The generated payload is incomplete because one or more ADMX element values were not supplied: PasswordProtectionChangePasswordURL
