password problemson Windows XP

Jeremy Boggs

Hello everyone,

My mother has a PC with Windows XP, and when she starts the
PC it says that the password is about to expire in 14 days.
She can't remember the old password to change the new
one....is there any way to 1. find the old password on the
computer? 2. change the password without the old password?
or/and 3. get rid of this feature entirely to avoid this
mess? Feel free to respond on the list or directly to me.
Thanks in advance!

Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

Go to Start/Run and type in: CMD. At the command prompt enter:
net accounts /maxpwage:unlimited
