Changing the Orchid Recorder Administrator Password

You may change the password for the default Administrator account any time after installation. You can do this in Orchid Recorder through the Users menu (as described in the Orchid Recorder Administrator Guide), or you can change it by modifying the Orchid Recorder properties file (as described below).

*In order to perform this change, you need to be signed in as an Administrator.

1. Open the Orchid Recorder properties file. (If you need extra help, refer back to the How to Edit a Configuration File section that corresponds to the operating system you are using.)
2. Change the orchid.admin.password property to implement a new setting.

3. Save and close the file.
4. After you update the Orchid Recorder properties file, you must restart the Orchid Recorder services. (If you need extra help, refer back to the How to Manage the Orchid Recorder Services section that corresponds to the operating system you are using.)
5. Once the restart is complete, you can sign into Orchid Recorder.
