FactoryTalk View - Changing Password back to Previously Used Password

[NikkoSuave]

Hello.

I have not found any documentation on this matter.

I want the user to be able to change their password back to a previously used password, but ft view will not allow this. When the user tries to, a popup says this password has been previously used.

Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?


Edit: I should have stated I am using FT Security, not windows.

In FactoryTalk View Studio go to the Explorer pane...

Go to System > Policies > System Policies > Security Policy
Open Security Policy and under Password Policy Settings set the Previous passwords remembered to 0 passwords.

Recompile the application.

Regards,
George

Thanks you GeoSpark. I had just tested to see if it used the Windows policies for this before lunch and found it did.

Excelent! Didn't know that there was that option.
