Changing Container Root/Administrator Password

The Change root/Administrator password page is displayed on clicking the Change Password link on the Parallels Power Panel menu. Only the root/Administrator password for the current Container can be changed. You should enter a new root/Administrator password for the current Container into the fields provided and click Change.

Note that Parallels Power Panel does not check the entered password as to its length and non-conformity to dictionary entries, so choosing a simple password rests entirely at your own risk. It is recommended to use a chaotic set of lowercase (a-z) and uppercase (A-Z) letters, digits (0-9), and punctuation marks as root/administrator password. The following punctuation marks are allowed: ! " $ % & , ( ) * + - . / ; : < = > ? [ \ ] ^ _ { | }. The space character, #, and @ symbols are not allowed. The password should not be less than 5 or more than 14 characters.
