    Please Help!We have a problem in change the passwords of those users joined in Active Directory. I already disable the GP in my AD server and under the user's account. But the same issue, changing a password is requiring complexity under my domain. Please note. I have 2 AD server that synchronize together. I checked the 2 domain, and they are the same settings. I hope anyone can help me in this issue. Well appreciated. Thank you

    :)

    Check the minimum password length password complexity and password history requirements

    Hi all,

    When I create a new user account or when I try to change a password, I have now this message :

    Check the minimum password length password complexity and password history requirements

    So, I have to create passwords with 14 characters at least, I don't know why.

    I didn't change anything on my AD server. And "Password must meet complexity requirements" is disabled. I tried to enable it and set "minimum password length" to 2 characters. But it doesn't change anything, I still have to create passwords with 14 chararters
    at least.

    Do you know what could be the cause of this issue ? We have a windows 2012 server.

    Thanks !

    I tried from the Computer management windows by enabling the Administrator and tried to set the blank password it gives following error

    ---------------------------

    Local Users and Groups

    ---------------------------

    The following error occurred while attempting to set the password for user HDC:

    The password does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements.

    ---------------------------

    OK

    ---------------------------

    It's really frustrating and we have all more than 200 PC need to be setup We found these issue in all other Preinstalled Windows 10 HP system.

    Kindly provide any hot fix or KB update for the same.

    So we can set up other systems.

    Even we checked the Group Policy setting these two settings are disabled then why these settings are getting enforced?

    Disable the password complexity

    How do i disable the password complexity when i login to my PC?

    I am able to create a one letter password previously which i find it convenient.

    I dont need a lengthy password.

    However, after a recent update i need to add complexity of my password.

    I tried to run gpedit.msc but and an error (Windows cannot find 'gpedit.msc'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.) was shown. I also tried to run gpmc.msc and a similar error pops up.
