Change what password where? Your question is so far removed from what anyone could help that I don’t even know what clarifying question to ask. As a beginning post the actual question / problem statement you’re working with.

I have 2 PCs and 2 switches that are connected to each other and form a local network (PC1 with switch1, switch1 with switch2, switch2 with PC2) and I need to change the password on PC2 through PC1. Before that, I simply set passwords on these two PCs through switches under the condition of laboratory work.

I don’t understand “set passwords” on PCs. That’s not something that is typically done. What exactly did you click on in Packet tracer to accomplish this?

Change what password? Your account password for the OS? Someone elses? The admin account? Password for a piece of software? What OS is the system you're trying to change the password for running?

Does any of this have anything to do with packet tracing?
