More fun if LAPS is installed.

Oof. I've never seen or used that. So that means that it is possible that NOBODY KNOWS the local admin password unless you log into AD with enough access to see it? And that's likely some massive randomly generated password that's just a long string of random characters/numbers?

That’s sort of how it works.

Local admin passwords sadly a thing of the past.

I could give a field person that if absolutely necessary which happened a few times.

Safe mode was needed to get rid of a corrupt DLL. Other times local administration was needed was with HP printers mostly field types would buy because they were so cheap.

With LAPS and trying to get a non technical person to function, migraine fuel.
