I have 1 domain and no OU's. I have used GPO and have created a policy that
set's a min password length & enables complexity. I have setup a filter to
assign it to a single user (for testing reasons). I perform GPUPDATE \FORCE
and the event viewer shows it completed. The problem is when I log onto a pc
with the user profile I defined in the GPO filter the passwords rules are not
assigned, and they can change their pw to anything they want. I even tried
rebooting the PC but that didn't help.

You can apply GPO's to Sites, Domains and OU's. You have the default
OU's if you have a AD Domain. Where exactly have you applied the
Policy that is not working.

I have applied it to the domain.
