Windows 10 HOME password expires soon. How to stop expiration

** This is in Windows 10 HOME so please don't offer suggestions regarding Local Policy or running CMD as an Admin - none of those options appear to work. **


After starting a course online, and logging in to their system, I inadvertently allowed the system to start a password/PIN expiration option which I seem unable to change on this laptop. I have had similar problems before with Win 10 Home, but previously found a site with instructions on an edit to the registry which solved the problem. Unfortunately I cannot find that site again, and most online help only tells you how to sort out password issues with Windows 10 Pro or what ever.


I appreciate that Microsoft has removed the password expiration from Win 10 Home, but if it gets set for whatever reason, it would be nice to have a way of changing it back to never expiring.

Any ideas? Thanks!
