Default Re: windows Tips & Tricks Remove password policy

Hi arjkhanna,

If you are looking for a way to program a solution you will have problems as the objects for the policy are held deep inside the registry for a local policy and in the case of a domain they are held inside the active directory. To edit them or remove them you will have to learn how to work the registry or the directory services classes.

If you are just looking for a way to remove them you will need to be a local admin or part of the local security groups on you machine.... if it is only a local policy that is implemented. Once the permissions is correct have a look at you administration tools inside the control panel.

For a network solution you will need to look at you Active directory and the policy items on the specific OU or domain that you belong to.

But to finish up for support questions on doing this you should have a look at the windows XP or Windows Server support groups as this group is for the development of windows forms applications, if you need to develop a solution I would try posting in the base class groups.
