PR Summary

This change fixes the documented default value for the -ReversibleEncryptionEnabled parameter in New-ADFineGrainedPasswordPolicy (winserver2025-ps), changing it from None to False to match verified product behavior. The Active Directory team recently fixed a related bug, and the reference incorrectly listed the default as None, which can mislead administrators about the parameter's actual default behavior.
