Hi,
This problem occurs since some programs cache credentials or keep active threads that retain the old credentials, or Stored user names
and passwords retain redundant credentials.
If only one account keeps getting lock out, please try the following steps on the client side:
1.
Run this command:
rundll32 keymgr.dll,KRShowKeyMgr
2. Backup the stored credentials using the Backup button. Then, remove them.
If the problem continues, we need to enable audit policies and analyze event log to troubleshoot this problem. For more information,
please refer to:
