Hello,
Today, I will introduce how to allow domain users to use simple passwords. As you know Windows Server by default doesn't allow for a simple password.
Note that this is only for educational purpose. If you intend to apply it for your production environment, make sure that your company's policy allows for that.
To do this you need first to be a member of domain administrators
- Log on to your domain controller
- Go to Control Panel >> Administrative Tools >> Group Policy Management
- Navigate to Default Domain Policy.Right click and choose edit
- From Computer Configuration > Windows settings > Security > Account Policies
Notice that all passwords and account settings are shown in the right tab
To allow password to be simple, double click on Password must meet complexity requirements
- Change the selected value to Disabled then click OK
