    @Lucy 3556 

     

    This issue may occur different reasons

    In my scenario, it was happened due to third party password reset (Sailpoint password reset plugin).

    This may occur if any CTRL+ALT+DeL policy disabled 

     

    another solution

    Step 1 : Have to use Regular deployment setting rather than RDP deployment

    Step 2:  Please run below script whenever you are login into bot runner vdi (no need to sign out, disconnect just execute below script)

                  --- Save file As DisconnectRDP_Lock.bat-------

    for /f "skip=1 tokens=3" %%s in ('query user %USERNAME%') do (

      %windir%\System32\tscon.exe %%s /dest:console

    )

    rem Rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation

    Did anyone find a solution for this?  We started getting it about 6 weeks ago intermittently, and we & AA support have not found a solution.  Thanks.
