Can a password expire
Is there a way to my password to expire? And when how long does it take?

Yes. Although it depends on system implementation, not every system requires password changes periodically so the "yes" may not apply to every user account system, or every user account system the same way as expiration limits will depend on the specific implementation.

What system are you referring to, and when you looked up their support section what did they say?

So my steam password can expire and not work?

Your Steam password will never expire.

Because last time I tried to login in didn't work and it was 100% right but then I changed it and it worked

Yes but what was it then should I be worried?

More plausible, you thought you were inputting it correctly, if you were you'd have logged in. And if not you'd be denied. Changing your password and inputting the new password correctly doesn't prove the old password expired. It just supports you were mistyping the old password.

But It was from a password manager at I logged in with it before. And I haven't got a email that my password has changed

Again, Steam does not expire passwords.

Your password manager had the wrong password, either because you added the wrong one before, or because it was changed since.
