If you manage a Drupal website having people reset their password can be easy with the Password Policy Module.

After turning the module on you can navigate to

/admin/config/people/password_policy/password_change
Where you’ll find a set of checkboxes where you can choose which role you want to force to reset their password. You can choose the authenticated user role in order to reset every users password.
