# Weak Password?

 * When registering a new user it’s giving a Weak Password error when I’m using 
   strong passwords to register. I’ve tested turning off reCAPTCHA and a few other
   settings and that didn’t do it, it’s consistently giving me the error. I’m using
   a strong password in both boxes and it’s showing it as strong, but still returning
   the error.
 * Here’s the error:
 * Required form field not found.
    Weak Password! Hint: To make password stronger,
   use upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols like ! ” ? $ % ^ & ).
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fweak-password%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi [@deeshaw](https://wordpress.org/support/users/deeshaw/),
 * Sorry for getting back to you late. We tried to replicate that error in our development
   environment but we were unable to replicate it. Also, we recently tried to register
   through the registration page and we were able to register successfully without
   any error. Such an error message appear when the set password matches either 
   the email or username. Please try setting a different password and check if the
   issue still exists.
 * Feel free to get back to us if the issue still exists.
 * Regards!
