Menu
The component first checks if you selected PassPhrase or RandomString for the password. If you selected PassPhrase, it will install the PassPhraser powershell module. The component then checks if you checked the box to disable the build-in administrator account. If you checked the box, it will disable the account if not already disabled. The component then checks if an account exists with a name matching the LocalAdminUsername field. If not it creates it and sets the password. If the account is present, it checks the age of the password. If the age is more than the MaxPasswordAge, or if you checked the ForcePasswordReset checkbox, the component changes the accounts password. The password is then saved to the UDF field specified in the component.
