I have several users who are being moved to a different group--one with less access. In the past when I did this, they retained their watch status on topics that they could no longer access. This meant that they received the replies in emails, but of course could not actually see the topic to read or post.

As an admin who does not know their current password, is there any way that I can unwatch on behalf of a user before I change their group?

Yes you can remove their watched forums and topics.

1. Login as an admin or moderator

2. Go to the users forum profile

3. Click 'Edit Members Settings'

4. Click 'Subscriptions' tab

You then get a list of forums and topics the user is subscribed to and can unsubscribe the user.
