    Why can't I disable password requirements for windows 10 home?


    I'm trying to remove password complexity requirements for my user account on windows 10 home. 2 days ago it forced me to set a new "complex" password to login to my home computer, but I have no need for a complex password on my home computer. I have followed all steps on this forum to remove it, with no success. Most of the guides are geared towards windows 10 Pro anyway, even in the Microsoft FAQ, advising use of snap-ins I don't have. I have run elevated commands in the command prompt, and I have exported my secconfig.cfg to verify that my settings are correct.Password complexity = 0Minimum
