The error message "The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed" typically occurs when the secure channel between a computer and the domain controller is broken. This can happen due to various reasons, such as computer account password mismatch, Active Directory issues, or other network connectivity problems. Here are steps you can take to fix this error:

Solution 1: Rejoin the Computer to the Domain​

1. Disconnect from the Network: Unplug the network cable or disable Wi-Fi.
2. Login Locally: Log in using a local account on the computer.
3. Rejoin the Domain: Rejoin the computer to the domain.
   • Right-click on "This PC" or "My Computer" -> Properties.
   • Click on "Change settings" next to the computer name.
   • Select "Change" -> choose "Workgroup" and click "OK."
   • Restart the computer.
   • After reboot, repeat the process and rejoin the computer to the domain.

     Solution 2: Use Netdom Command (If the Above Solution Doesn't Work)​

   []Reset the Computer Account: Open Command Prompt as an administrator. []Run Commands:

   bash netdom resetpwd /s:DC_name /ud:domain\username /pd:*

   Replace DC_name with the domain controller name, domain with the domain name, and username with a user account that has the permissions to reset the computer account password. []Restart the Computer: After running the command, restart the computer.

   Solution 3: Check for Active Directory Issues​

   []Login as Local Administrator: Log in using a local administrator account. []Check Active Directory Health: Verify the health of the domain controllers, replication, and Active Directory services.

   Solution 4: Check Network Connectivity​

   []Check Network Connection: Ensure the computer has a stable network connection to the domain controller.
4. Ping the Domain Controller: Test network connectivity by pinging the domain controller.

   Solution 5: Contact System Administrator​

   If you are unable to resolve the issue, contact your system administrator or IT support for further assistance. After trying these steps, the trust relationship between your workstation and the primary domain should be restored. Let me know if you need further assistance or clarification on any of the steps!
