New password cannot begin with '?' or '!'
Help Document

Diagnosis

'?' '!, when used as the first character of a password, have a special meaning.
For this reason, you cannot use either of these characters as the first character in a password. Otherwise, it would no longer be possible to have password-based logons using SAP GUI.

System Response

Procedure

Use a different password.
