Active Directory password expiration notification.

Question

Hello,

We have many users who complain about not getting AD passwords expiration notification pop up on their PC, and they have to call the help desk to get their password resettled.

Further troubleshooting indicates that some of the users don't log off their pc at all. They just lock their workstation when they leave, and as the result, they don't see the password expiration notification.

Is there a way to have password expiration notification pops up on user pc everyday for 15 days regardless if they logoff the network or not?

Thanks for your help.
