I just installed Windows 10. I was part of a domain. When I try to log in I get,
"The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed."
Since I do not remember my local accounts, am I left with resetting the local administrator password with a third party tool such as the Offline Windows Password & Registry Editor and rejoining the domain or using netdom on the client.
Is there another way to make the trust relationship come back?
edit: I have tried to reset the machine account in Active Directory Users and Computers. Same error. (yes, I rebooted).
I changed the suggested edits, partially. I believe it is relevant to put the Pogostick link so it is clear what I mean by resetting. That I need a third party tool such as that. – johnny – 2015-07-30T17:58:08.817

– Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2015-07-30T18:11:26.560AFAIK (and as the answers in the marked possible dupe seem to also concur) the only way to rebuild that trust it to dis-join the computer from the domain, delete it's AD account, and then re-join. – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2015-07-30T18:14:37.247

1The answers all show how to fix the broken trust/domain-relationship, however I'm curious if anyone wants to answer WHY THIS HAPPENS as asked by @johnny in the title? – gregg – 2019-07-11T19:12:35.997
