How to change the text of email notifications
Is there a way for me to change the text in these emails that come out when a users signs up to Netwrix Password Reset?
There is a way to change the text of notifications.
Where templates are stored
E-mail templates are stored in the Templates subfolder of the Netwrix Password Reset installation directory. There are a lot of text files for different languages there.
Some useful tips
- We use clear titles for template text files. For example, the file
change_body_template.txtcontains the body text of the email sent as a change password notification. - There are 2 files for each type of notification: one for the subject of an email and one for the body.
- Files with
_admin the filename are templates for emails sent to administrators (specified on Admin portal/Settings/Alerts), while files without_admare sent to the user(s). - Languages are specified as additional postfix (for example
_de,_fr).
Available languages
| File | Language |
|---|---|
| cn.asp | Chinese |
| de.asp | German |
| en.asp | English |
| es.asp | Spanish |
| fr.asp | French |
| he.asp | Hebrew |
| it.asp | Italian |
| jp.asp | Japanese |
| ko.asp | Korean |
| pt.asp | Portuguese |
| ru.asp | Russian |
| sk.asp | Slovak |
| zh.asp | Traditional Chinese |
However Netwrix Password Reset uses only files without postfix in the name (for example action_body_template.txt, not action_body_template_ko.txt) to send notification. Here is the full list of files used:

How to change language or edit templates
-
To change the language of a template, rename the respective localized template file to the default name.
Example: to switch the text of the notification about a password change to German, rename
change_body_template_de.txttochange_body_template.txt. -
Alternatively, edit the existing default English templates.
To do this, edit the .txt files located in the Templates subfolder of the Netwrix Password Reset installation directory.
