So this year my domain at work has been having issues and it seems to be growing or at least they are getting frustrated enough with it that they have started to bring it to my attention more and more often.
As my machine has this issue as well I will give you what I have experienced. This a Windows 7 computer running WSUS updates that are pruned by our parent company. Since January or February I have had problems where I go to sign into my computer it will tell me my password is incorrect. Eventually I would restart my computer in frustration and it would work. As a few other people brought similar issues to my attention we found that even just unplugging from the network and plugging back in would take care of it. This was a little annoying but a restart to start the day once every couple of weeks isn't the end of the world.
Now fast forward to April and I realize new OS installations are having a similar issue during our Desktop management softwares attempts to set it up. It gets me thinking and I start paying a lot more attention to when my PC displays the issue. I found that it happens only after windows updates are ran, the very next boot, if it is connected to the network, it will have this issue. It doesn't happen every update cycle but it only happens after updates.
Now once I realized this I got in touch with IT at our parent company's office and they tell me that they have seen the same thing and have had a ticket open with Microsoft for some time on this issue. Which is fine and dandy but user frustration is growing with this issue and was major complaint from some Managers to my Manager. Problem is my Google Fu is really failing me everything I see for login issues is single machine or user related and perpetual usually require new profile being generated, system restore, or system reload.
Has anyone else seen a problem like this before?
