  Hi Ahmed

  You could refer these codes to reset password,

  public static Boolean ResetPassword(string username, string password, string DomainId, string setpassword, Boolean UnlockAccount,Boolean NextLogon)

  { PrincipalContext pr = new PrincipalContext(ContextType.Domain, "corp.local", "dc=corp,dc=local", username, password);

     UserPrincipal user = UserPrincipal.FindByIdentity(pr, DomainId);

     Boolean flag = false;

     if (user != null && user.Enabled == true)

      { if (UnlockAccount)

          {user.UnlockAccount(); }

          user.SetPassword(setpassword);

          if (NextLogon)

          {user.ExpirePasswordNow();}

          user.Save();

          flag = true;

      }

      else

        { flag = false; }

      user.Dispose();

      pr.Dispose();

      return flag;

     }

  You could also get some tips from the discussion in stackoverflow.

  hope it helps you,

  KInd regards
