    Is the server a domain controller? If it is, once you install Active Directory Domain Services the local account will seize to exist. You can only login to the local account in safe mode or directory restore mode. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but this is what my memory is telling me.

    Hi,

     

    I agree with Mats. Please provide more information about your environment. As you mentioned “i create a domain administrator with a complex password then i login with the local administrator.”, I recommend that you paste the exactly steps here for the further research. Thanks for your understanding.

     

     

    Best Regards,
