Windows 10: Unable to get Windows to stop asking me to change my password?

Hi there! I've seen a couple other threads about this but everyone seems to be getting the same answer: Your company has set up a password change, go talk to them. However I continue to get a forced password change every time I log in every couple of month and I am the only one who uses this computer, this is a personal email, I do not work for a company, and I am the administrator on my own computer and yet it keeps telling me that someone else has set up a mandatory password change? I've tried going into the files an disabling the program that causes this, however it has not seemed to work.
