You can run the Change Network Account utility from the command line by running aaAdminUser.exe. If you open aaAdminUser.exe from a command prompt without any flags, it opens the Change Network Account GUI. If you open aaAdminUser.exe with flags, it runs from the command prompt. Any changes require that you restart the computer to complete the change.
The default installed location for aaAdminUser.exe is:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\ArchestrA.
Note: As is the case for the Change Network Account utility, you must have system administrator privileges to run aaAdminUser.exe from the command prompt.
