Here is the information on the setting and its location.
Enforce password history
Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Account
Policies\Password Policy
Description
Determines the number of unique new passwords that have to be associated
with a user account before an old password can be reused. The value must be
between 0 and 24 passwords.
By default, this setting is defined in the Default Domain Group Policy
object (GPO) and in the local security policy of workstations and servers
with a value of 1.
The intent of this policy is to enable administrators to enhance security by
ensuring that old passwords are not continually reused.
Note
For history to be effective, do not allow passwords to be changed
immediately when configuring the Minimum password age.
