About the Password Encryption tool
The Password Encryption tool is installed on the IIS machine only.
By default, the Password Encryption tool (
PasswordTool.exe
) is located in the
Application\bin
directory under your
Detect
installation.
Use this tool when a database password has changed, and you need to update the encrypted password in the registry.
To update the password in the registry, enter the password into the
Password to be Encrypted
field, then click
Encrypt
. To update the registry with the encrypted password, click
Update Registry
.
The encrypted password is the same one that is generated in the connections of the Configuration Utility.
