    How to prompt password reset every month for Windows logon?

    I was asked to find a way to set up all PCs in the company to prompt password change once a month. All PCs have Windows 7 Home Premium (majority) or Windows 8.1, and there is no such option on user setting. Is there any way to set it up on Windows, or by any 3rd party software?
