if
Tools -> Advanced Settings -> "Use password hash" AND "hashed password" (in ASP.NET Maker v2018) are Checked
OR
Only "hashed password" is Checked
===>
The user can change his password.
But
The administrator user can not update/change the user's password.

The administrator user can not update/change the user's password.
Any error message? Is it a hard code Administrator or not? Try to enable debug mode (click Tools -> Advanced Settings -> Debug) to see more.

If you mean that when you enabled "change password" option in Login options of advanced security.
Someone Correct me if am wrong, but i think
- This enabled any NON hard coded user to change thier own password when they log in.
- Since this works only for users who belong to the users table. The hardcoded Admin user should not be able to change thier password as it cant be store anywhere.
- This option DOES NOT automatically create options in users list for any admin to reset passwords for other users.
So if option 3 is what you are looking for then you can easily impliment it by making an editable that allows only to change the password of a specific account ad add it as a list option linking to the edit page of this view passing the user id for those who have permission to it.
