Hello,

found this solution:

Press Start button > go to Accessories > right-click Command Prompt > select
"Run as administrator" > type into the prompt: net accounts
/maxpwage:unlimited > Enter .

It should now work.
Good luck!

It was very helpful. Thanks Stolfo! I see too there are options to set
min days, max days, etc using "net accounts /?". Thanks again!
