      Sounds like the her cached user profile is not working correctly.

      I was told similarly from another post. But I am not sure what would be the cause.

        Disk corruption.

            That's a possibility. To note: it's a brand new laptop (2 months old) with decent spec.

              I already checked protected user group. We do not have anyone/group in it.

              I'll read about this logon cache.

                It might just be easier if you setup VPN on her laptop and have her login.

                  That's already on the list. But my plate is full, and it's not that urgent. Just that I've never seen this issue before. Any I want to prevent it from happening... ever again.

                          You can change domain settings related to this. But it has been years since I looked into it.

                          It could be the machine credentials have expired and not user.

                          Domain machines are not designed to be off the network forever.

                                    They do that?
                                    I just today had a laptop come into the office that hasn't logged in over a year. In fact I had deleted the computer account too. While the PC was on the network, it refused to logon because there was no domain computer account, but once I disconnected the network, the cached creds worked just fine.

                                      You can try disabling nic then rebooting, then logging in using credentials. If it is a laptop wifi adapter you can do this with Fn keys probably. Might have to use [email protected] if they chose Other User previously.

                                        You normally have this enabled and set to 2 or more for mobile users.

                                          Always worth asking.... is AD even needed? Maybe moving to local accounts would make more sense.

                                            Always worth asking.... is AD even needed? Maybe moving to local accounts would make more sense.

                                            Not a bad idea. I’ve been going that route for mobile users for awhile.
