Password keeps wanting to updated every 20 days

Hi and I'm getting tired of this. XP keeps asking me for a change of
my password every 20 days or so. How can I make it either stop
altogether or change it to every 2-3 months. Thanks.

Speak with your IT Department: They're the ones who've put this GPO in
place.

Local Security Settings --> Security Settings --> Account Policies

Set the Maximum Password Age to 0 (zero)
