Local Admin Password expiration period UEM and Access

Hi,

Customer has an "emergency" local admin account in each UEM and Access tenant which has a 128bit password. However, they are looking for an option to disable the expiration of the password for this specific account. How can we best arrange this? As far as I can see it is not possible but maybe you have an idea?

Thank you Phil.

We are looking for never expire password for a specific UEM and Access basic/system(local) admin account.

I believe you script is about the windows admin account.
