Post subject: Password expired - change pw -> Access is denied
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windows>vista>administration_accounts_passwords (more info?)

I booted up my Vista Ultimate this AM to a "Your password has expired and
must be changed message."
It offers me 3 fields, 1st one is filled in (my old pw presumably), 2nd says
"new pw", 3rd says "confirm pw".
I fill in 2, and 3, and click -> which results in a brief flash of
"Changing password..." then "Access is denied."
I've tried clearing 1 and putting in my pw instead of letting it get filled
in, the result is the same.
How do i fix this?
Thanks. |

It sounds like your user account is set such that it is not allowed to
change its password.
- Is your account an administrator account?
- Can you still log in?
- Do you have any other administrator accounts available to log in with?

Thomas-
That link seems to lead back to this post (on groups.google) when I click
it, did you mean for it to lead elsewhere?
Help appreciated thanks.
