Determine status of password expiry
Hi everyone, (first post :) ) I'm running a deployment system of Windows 7 and I've suddenly had a run of computers coming up asking for new passwords, and the users have been unable to proceed beyond this screen. The account they log in under is not set to have a password. I'm trying to determine whether I've inadvertantly set password expiry on these systems. I understand that password expiry can be set using the "wmic path Win32_UserAccount where Name='user' set PasswordExpires=option" command, however in the interest of determining whether this is the problem or not I specifically do NOT want to change the PasswordExpires status but simply to see what it's currently set to. Does anyone know a way of seeing this? I was thinking either by a variation of the wmic command or possibly seeing something in the registry. Any help greatly appreciated :) Brett
