Set a Minimum Number of Characters for the Pen Password
Add a DWORD registry setting:
For 32-bit computers, the registry location is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Adapx\Adapx Capturx Pen Manager\
EnforcePasswordLength
For 64-bit computers, the registry location is:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Adapx\Adapx Capturx Pen Manager\
EnforcePasswordLength
Purpose:
The purpose of this setting is to allow IT administrators to establish a minimum password length. The
maximum number for the minimum length of the password is 22 if there are no non-English characters
included. For passwords with at least one non-English character, the maximum password length is 11
characters.
If the key is set to zero, then Capturx Pen Manager behaves as if no minimum has been set. If the key is
set to a number greater than 22, then 22 will be used.
NOTE: Passwords that exist prior to applying this setting will not be checked for length and will not be
forced to change.
