Windows Domain -- check when does my password expire?

At work, we use a domain login for the network that, supposedly, makes us change our password every 30 days.

How can I check and see the number of days remaining? I think it should be coming up soon but it's not giving me any warnings, notices, etc. like I expected this past week.

The PC I'm using runs Vista, but I can get on an XP machine if neccecary.


If your on a Windows Domain, only your administrator can tell you when your password expires, if it actually expires at all. Your Domain Administrator should be able to help you with anything involving the domain and passwords. But he has to uphold the policy for your company. So he might not be allowed to do somethings for; you will just have to found out from him/her. Hope that helps.

you cant, you would need to check the active directory that your in, since most it teams will not show you this unless you have a really good reason.. or they might. since you'll need to go to the server machine

Change it today, then you'll know
