Windows 10: how do i stop windows from stating "your organization requires you to change your password"

I am using an HP laptop running windows 10 home edition version 1903. My version was just updated to build 18362.535. This is my personal laptop and noone else has access or an account. I am logging in using my microsoft account. Every time there is a windows update and even other times i get the statement 'your organization requires you to change your password". I DO NOT HAVE AN ORGANIZATION. This is a PERSONAL laptop. Why is it asking me to change my password at all, as according to microsoft the deault value is to NEVER have a password expire. I am getting tired of changing a password that i dont want to be using at all. This is getting ridiculous. Please do not come back and tell me some type of convoluted way to change my registry and give me 500 steps to follow. Even though i do have some education in computer science, i do not work for MICROSOFT. I am the end user, not the programmer. There should be an easy fix for this. HELP!!

Thank you for posting your response.

Before we proceed, I would like you to provide the information stated below:

2. In the dialog box type control system and hit enter.

If you are using a Microsoft Account to log into your system and you are unable to change the password, then I would suggest that you sign in online and change your password. Follow the steps below to do so.
