    I am having issues with my Windows machines giving a warning that the user passwords need changed because they have expired. I never set this up on the machine before imaging so I think it has to be a setting in FOG. Is there a way to change this so that the user passwords never expire?

      @datastream If your machines are joined to a domain, most likely this is a group policy setting on the domain. Fog wouldn’t have anything to do with this either way.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG!

        They aren’t in a domain. I just installed windows, ran updates, and created an image. I imaged these machines and installed programs. They end up saying that the passwords have expired and need changed.

          @datastream This might be a case that requires using sysprep if you aren’t already. I had to learn all about going into audit mode and using the unattend.xml file for prepping the first golden image for our district when we were forced to start rolling out Windows 10 before we were ready (thanks Intel for not supporting Win 7 updates on newer chipsets…).

          Anyhow, I do the entire setup in audit mode with the built in administrator account. When the OOBE runs my unattend file injects the activation key, re-enables the local admin account, sets the password, auto-logs in for some scripts to run and other fun stuff before I have the FOG client service turn back on via the systemcomplete.cmd file so that FOG can set the PC name and join the domain. Never had any issues with passwords.

          Out of curiosity, which build of Windows 10 are you trying to deploy? With how wonky Windows 10 has been there may be some additional setup required to meet your needs.

            These are Windows 7 machines. Is there a command I can push out that would turn off the required password changes?

              @datastream Not sure if this is the issue, but this might help:
