Did Microsoft just make it so ALL their accounts can only be 16 characters? Suddenly my main MS account pw doesn't work and it now won't let me set it to a pw similar to what it was.
I mean instead of fixing that limitation they decided to make everything else have the same limitation?
What annoys me most about this is that I use this account for logging in to some computers so I have an easy-to-remember and type password rather than a random string.
16 characters is plenty strong for a truly random password, less so for an english-based password.
