One of my users is getting a message that his windows password will expire in 13 days. They get an option to change it. If they say no, they will be logged in. This carries on until the password is expired and they have to change it.
Is there a way of changing this so that the message does not come up until the password has expired?

Set the Reg_Dword value of
"PasswordExpiryWarning"
to the number of days before the warning is displayed
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
