I tried them however they didnt work anymore for me I had to use: Import-Csv ".\Sample7users.csv" -Delimiter "," -Encoding UTF8 | ForEach-Object {
$user = Get-AzureADUser -Filter "userPrincipalName eq '$($_.upn)'"
$secureString = ConvertTo-SecureString ($_.pw) -AsPlainText -Force
Set-AzureADUserPassword -ObjectId $user.ObjectID -Password $secureString -ForceChangePasswordNextLogin $false

Hi ABill1,
To do bulk password reset, you need to create a CSV file where it should have a column preset with passwords, we will use this command, provided the column header is named “Password".
Import-Csv "C:\Users.csv" | % { Set-MsolUserPassword -userPrincipalName "$_.UserPrincipalName" -NewPassword "$_.Password" -ForceChangePassword $False
As you noticed, ForceChangePassword was set to false hence it should not force the users to change password the next time they sign in.
