deleting password expiration date in windows 7 home premium

See THIS from the Windows 7 forum.  It appears to answer your questions.

If  not on a domain, then right-click on Computer>Manage.  Then go to Users/Groups, right-click on your user, Properties and check Password Never Expires.

I'm registered with Windows 7 forum and get the page, if you are not, that may be the cause, but I found the link doing a google search.

Here is what is on the Windows 7 forum link:

NOTE: This option is only available for the Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate, and Enterprise editions.

1. If you have not already, you must enable password expiration for each user account that you want to have their password expire for that user to be able to get a warning that their password will expire before the maximum password age has been reached.

2. Open the Local Security Policy editor.

3. In the left pane, expand Local Policies, and click on Security Options. (see screenshot below)

4. In the right pane, double click on Interactive logon: Prompt user to change password before expiration. (see screenshot above)

5. Type in how many days you want Windows 7 to begin prompting users to change their password before it expires, then click on OK. (see screenshot below)

6. Close the Local Security Policy editor.

NOTE: This option is available for all Windows 7 editions.

1. If you have not already, you must enable password expiration for each user account that you want to have their password expire for that user to be able to get a warning that their password will expire before the maximum password age has been reached.

 redfordl2010,

My Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium doe NOT have this feature. Are you sure you have Windows Home Premium?

Start, control panel, system

Sounds like you have Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. That sounds like some type of feature a company uses.

Is this a company computer?
