Change Password Expiry Notice Period With Reg

Here is the registry tweak to change your password expiry 
notice period..

In earlier versions of Windows, the default interval that 


users were notified of password expiration was 14 


days before expiration but in windows7 & server 2008 


R2 the default password expiry notice occurs 5 days 


before the password expiration date.


But Don't worry you can change it just follow the steps 


Steps:

1. open registry editor (for open registry editor goto 

    run type regedit)

2. Navigate to 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

3. At right side you will find PasswordExpiryWarning just 

double click it & change the period...



















That's it...
