About this tag
The SSPR tag on WindowsForum.com covers self-service password reset, a feature that allows users to reset their own passwords without help-desk intervention. Discussions focus on Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure AD) SSPR, including upcoming policy changes such as the September 2026 requirement that recovery methods must be explicitly registered rather than inferred from directory contact data. Topics also include passwordless sign-in with Windows Hello and passkeys, which reduce reliance on traditional passwords while maintaining enterprise controls. Recurring themes include security improvements, user registration campaigns, and the operational impact on IT help desks. The tag is relevant for IT administrators managing Microsoft Entra ID tenants and Windows 11 deployments.
