Windows: Set Password Never Expire


Create user yaadmin and set password never expire.
net user yaadmin /FullName:"Yet Another Administrator" Passwd12 /add
wmic useraccount where "Name='yaadmin'" set PasswordExpires=FALSE

When creating new user interactively, it is just a good practice to replace password with * , and then type in password 2 times.

net user yaadmin /FullName:"Yet Another Administrator" * /add
Type a password for the user:
Retype the password to confirm:
add new user with net user command

Set Administrator's password never expired:

wmic useraccount where Name='Administrator' set PasswordExpires=FALSE
