Question

When I try to login to the administrator account of my Windows server 22, this notice appears and after a while I am logged out after a while. how to solve it?

As a security precaution, the user account has been locked because there were too many logon attempts or password change attempts. Wait a while before trying again, or contact your system administrator or technical support.

Hello there,

I am unable to see the error message that you have posted.

Have you checked the Event Viewer for any trace?

If you cannot find anything in Event Viewer I would suggest you use tools like Procmon to find the root cause for this behaviour.

Have you made any recent updates that you are aware of on this device? If so try uninstalling them and check if this sorts out the issue

If you've recently installed new software or updates, they may be causing conflicts. Try to boot into Safe Mode to see if you can log in without issues. If so, it might be a software conflict.

It's possible that the administrator user profile has become corrupted. You can try creating a new administrator account and see if you can log in with that.

Hope this resolves your Query !!

Answer 2

Hello Omar Faruk,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Is your windows server 2022 a Domain Controller or a member server?

Is your administrator built-in Domain Administrator account or a member of Domain Admins?

If the administrator is built-in Domain Administrator, it should not be locked out, you can check the Properties of the Account tab on Administrator.

If the administrator is a member of Domain Admins, then you can check if the account is locked out by checking the Properties of the Account tab on this account. If it is locked out, you can unlock it to see if it helps.

I hope the information above is helpful.

If you have any question or concern, please feel free to let us know.

Best Regards,
Daisy Zhou
