Hello,

I'm struggling to remove this password expiration, I had the code to type in the command prompt: net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited

but it doesn't work, and just typing net accounts shows me only the options that can be modified but I don't know how to do it.


if anyone can help me please
thank you

    My system is working; I just tested it a moment ago. CMD shows me:
    C:\Windows\system32>NET ACCOUNTS /MAXPWAGE:Unlimited
    The command completed successfully.

    C:\Windows\system32>NET ACCOUNTS
    Force logoff after expiration?: Never
    Minimum password age (days): 0
    Maximum password age (days): No limit
    Minimum password length: 0
    Number of passwords to remember: None
    Lockout threshold: Never
    Lockout duration (mins): 30
    Lockout observation window (mins): 30
    Computer role: STATION
    The command completed successfully.

    C:\Windows\system32>NET ACCOUNTS /MAXPWAGE:5
    The command completed successfully.

    N.B: You need to run CMD as an administrator

      Great, this command works, long live the command prompt and manual work, because even in the registry with the entry DesablePasswordChange, it doesn't work.
      Thank you.

    Hello

    I had the problem and what you provided helped me. I think I found the solution: check my CMD window

    C:\Users\HP>net account
    The syntax of this command is:

    NET
    [ ACCOUNTS | COMPUTER | CONFIG | CONTINUE | FILE | GROUP | HELP |
    HELPMSG | LOCALGROUP | PAUSE | PRINT | SESSION | SHARE | START |
    STATISTICS | STOP | TIME | USE | USER | VIEW ]

    C:\Users\HP>net accounts
    Force logoff after expiration? : Never
    Minimum password age (days) : 0
    Maximum password age (days) : 42
    Minimum password length : 0
    Number of previous passwords to keep : None
    Lockout threshold : Never
    Lockout duration (min) : 30
    Lockout observation window (min) : 30
    Computer role : STATION
    The command completed successfully.

    C:\Users\HP>NET ACCOUNTS
    NO} [/MINPWLEN:of
    [/MAXPWAGE:{days | UNLIMITED
    /UNIQUEPW:number /DOMAIN

    I think that
    NET ACCOUNTS /MAXPWAGE:UNLIMITED
    will remove the password. Beware, I'm not sure!

    Search and try: you will find the solution!
    Sniff and look everywhere: you will find knowledge!!
