To disable AD password complexity use:

  1. Go to either "Group policy editor" at AD level or "Local policy editor" at machine level or both
  2. Go to Computer Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings ->Password Policy
  3. Change the complexity and password aging as per requirement
  4. At AD level from administrator cmd run
    gpupdate /force
  5. If existing "Active Directory Users and Computers" or "Computer Management" is open, we need to close and reopen it for changes to take effect.
