    Your special character test isn't correct.

      # Reference: https://ss64.com/ps/syntax-regex.html

  $TBPassword = 'ax2$xMxx'        # change this to test

  ($TBPassword -cmatch '[a-z]')   
  ($TBPassword -cmatch '[A-Z]') 
  ($TBPassword -match '\d') 
  ($TBPassword.length -gt 7) 
  ($TBPassword -match '[!@#%^&$]')



if (($TBPassword -cmatch '[a-z]') -and ($TBPassword -cmatch '[A-Z]') -and ($TBPassword -match '\d') -and ($TBPassword.length -gt 7) -and ($TBPassword -match '[!@#%^&$]')) {
    "All tests are true."
} else { 
    [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Passwords must be at least 7 characters, contain an uppercase and a special character.") 
    return
}

    OK, I think I got it now, would you do something else with the form?

    function Load-Form {

    $Form.Controls.Add($TBPassword2)
    $Form.Controls.Add($GBPassword)
    $Form.Controls.Add($Button)
    $Form.Controls.Add($Label)
    $Form.Add_Shown({$Form.Activate()})
    [void] $Form.ShowDialog()
}

$Button.add_click({
     if (-not ($TBPassword.Text -ceq $TBPassword2.Text)) {
         [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Passwords didn’t match. Please try again.") 
     }
     else{

    I'm struggling with the password validation, I'd like to add atleast 8 characters, special characters and one uppercase.
    The result it that I can create passwords less than 4 characters

            if(($TBPassword -cmatch '[a-z]') -and ($TBPassword -cmatch '[A-Z]') -and ($TBPassword -match '\d') -and ($TBPassword.length -gt 7) -and ($TBPassword -match '!|@|#|%|^|&|$')) {
            [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Passwords must atelast be 7 charactersgain.") 
                return
                }


           # Check So The Password Match  
           if (-not ($TBPassword.Text -ceq $TBPassword2.Text))   {
         [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Passwords didn’t match. Please try again.") 
            return
        }

        # Create User And Assign To Administrators Group
        New-LocalUser @useroptions | Add-LocalGroupMember -Group (Get-Localgroup | ? Sid -eq $group)
        [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("User has been created successfully.","User created",0,64) 
        $Form.Close()
    }catch{
        [System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox]::Show("Error creating new user account:`n $($_.Exception.Message)","Exception",0,48)
        return
    }

    Best regards
