Now, let’s say you have enabled your users to create their own App Passwords to use in non-browser applications. But, you want to clear the same for a particular user citing there are some security concerns and they needs to be cleared before you start fresh for that user.
Here’s how you can delete App Passwords created for a selected User. Example: Priyesh is a user who has created an App Password since MFA is enforced.
Office 365 Admin Center
In Office 365 Admin Center, go to Users
- Once you see all the Active Users, you can simply click on Multi-factor Authentication
- Now, you’ll be able to see all the users who use MFA and if they have been enforced and hence, must’ve created their App Passwords. (Only Enforced Users can create app passwords – Allow users to create App Passwords in Office 365 | Multi-factor Authentication)
Now, let’s select Priyesh’s user settings by selecting the user and then going to Manage User Settings. - In manage Settings for this user, you’ll see the option ‘Delete all existing app passwords generated by the selected user‘
Select the same and then Save. - Now, if Priyesh checked the App Passwords / Sign-In (https://mysignins.microsoft.com/security-info), the App Password would be gone!
