    use case:
    * user is member of a group which requires magic password
    * user has activated and used the magic password
    * administrator has changed user to other role which does not require magic password

    I receive the following error message:
    Logging in with login and password is disabled for this account.

    It is OK. The error occurs because role change does not enable standard login. User have to do it on their own.

    but how can a user deactivate magic password if he fail to login?
    How can an administrator solve this problem?

    It is possible only by changing manually settings in the database. Please find the user’s ID in the wp_users table. Then go to the wp_usermeta table and find mpwd_only_auth_option setting. Change its value from 1 to 0. The user will be able to log in with their’s login and password.
