Password Group policy not working?

Hi,

Ive got a password policy on the domain controller (Windows 2012) and it appears not to be enforced on the domain computers? Any ideas why this would be?

The clients are mainly Windows 7 with one or two Windows 10 whilst the server estate is a mixture of 2012 and 2008 R2.

Thanks

What are you showing in Event Viewer?

If you do a gpresult /H gpresult.html, what does that show?

Is GPO replication working across your domain?

Check if GPO is Enforced.

How can I check if the GPO is actually in play?

Like I wrote: Run rsop.msc on all DCs and see if it has applied. If in the result, there is no password policy settings, then your DCs did not apply any pw policy, yet.
