ASP.NET Identity change password

by

EDIT: I know the OP requested an answer which performs the task in one transaction but I think the code is useful to people.

All the answers use the PasswordHasher directly which isn’t a good idea as you will lose some baked in functionality (validation etc).

An alternative (and I would assume the recommended approach) is to create a password reset token and then use that to change the password. Example:

var user = await UserManager.FindByIdAsync(id);

var token = await UserManager.GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync(user);

var result = await UserManager.ResetPasswordAsync(user, token, "MyN3wP@ssw0rd");
