"Your password will expire in 10 days" Windows 2000 Pro - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

shag112 · 06-14-2004, 10:29 AM

I had this problem a long time ago and for the life of me I can't remember what the hell to do. At log on I'm getting this message yet i've never assigned any passwords to this machine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

Should be a checkbox in Control Panel--> Users and Passwords.

Am assuming that you are automatically logging on as a particular user?

Did you Google for it? Or search the built-in Windows help? (Start - Help)

inside of here, go to the advanced tab, then find the user and select the checkbox for password never expires.

Can you hear it? It's like when you put your head to the grass and you can hear the growin' and you can hear the insects. Do you like Beethoven ?
