I thought Active Directory and its components were server only.

The code supplied
$usr=[ADSI]'WinNT://localh
$usr.passwordExpired = 1
$usr.setinfo()
On Win 7 Pro although it does not flag any error does not require the user to reset their password, I did replace the TheUserLogonName with the correct user name.

Take two - The userid was set to password never expires which apparently overrides the request to force the password reset

Cannot use it in Win 8 Home, cannot force password change in Win 8 Home
