I need help troubleshooting repeated AD account lockouts that occur after a computer is restarted, sleeps, or is locked. Many users in my company are facing this issue, and I don't know what initiates it. Every time this happens, I have to unlock their user from Active Directory. All the users' OS are Windows 10, and the AD is Windows 2019. i have reviewed the local and dc event logs but i can only find the last event which is the locked out event, i was expecting to see the attempts before lockout but there are not any. Can someone help me solve this problem? Thank you in advance.

    Have a look at this article, which will identify where accounts are getting locked from. https://nettools.net/troubleshoot-account-lockouts/
