Password Expires in 60 days

A computer club member with Window Vista Home Premium has asked how to stop
the message that reads: " Password Expires in 60 days" without removing the
password from his system? Our group of "experts" had no clue, including
myself.

Any thoughts?

Re: Password Expires in 60 days

Have you checked the Group Policy setting that controls password expiration?

Run GPEDIT.msc > Computer > Windows > Security > Password policy > Maximum
password validity > Set to 0

Best,

So how was a password expiry date set up in Home Premium in the first place?
AFAIK there is no function when setting up user accounts to do that...
