I can't create users using simple passwords

[yifli]

In both default domain group policy and default domain controller group
policy, I disabled 'Password must meet complexity requirements'.

But why am I still not able to use a simple password when creating a user
under User container on a domain controller? I don't have any OUs in the
domain.

I ran RSOP and it says something like ''The policy engine did not attempt to
configure the setting".

Try to run the gp update /force command.

It did not work for me. Any ideas?

After giving that command, now I even can not edit group policy object

Failed to open group policy object. you may not have appropriate rights

Details: the network name can not be found
