We are using Appian 7.7 version in which when we created a new user which gets automatically added to one of the group having some permissions by running one rule in the background. The newly created user having system Administrator privileges but also when we click on reset password on that users profile we are getting below error.

Try adding test.admin to the Application Users group and have the user log in. If that works someone removed the rule of the Application Users Group

Thanks Ed, This is working as expected now. I am just curious to know, I had created a new user and Application Users group is not removed by anyone. Is custom rule creation and adding any new user into custom group overriding Appians default groups (which gets added after user creation) ?

As long as the Application Users has its out of the box rule to add all basic users to it then no, other custom rules shouldn't interfere.
