When attempting to download and install Postgres on my computer for
work, it prompted me to create a password. Upon trying many different
combinations I could not get one to work. An error message stated
that the password I entered did not meet the constraints.  Is there a
guide to creating a password.

I assume you are using Windows (because of the mail headers)

The password you have been prompted for is for the Windows user under which the Postgres service will be started.

The rules for that password are defined by your Windows installation and are not (and cannot) be influenced by PostgreSQL or the installer. If you are part of a Windows domain, you need to ask your domain admin what the password rules are.
