Answer 1

Greetings,

The issue you're experiencing might be related to the account permissions of the profile you're using to remotely access the server 2019. To verify this, please check whether an administrative account is capable of modifying passwords within Edge's password manager.

Concerning the permissions problem, you may want to consider adding the problematic account to various settings under Group Policy / User Rights Assignment. Specifically, ensure that the account is included in the following policies:

- Allow log on locally

- Access this computer from the network

Also, it's crucial to confirm that the user accounts in question are not included in these restrictive policies:

- Deny log on locally

- Deny access to this computer from the network

After making these adjustments, restart your machines to apply the changes effectively.

For detailed guidance on how to carry out these steps, please consult the following resource:
