Cached Credentials issues
If you change the password on one computer but others or if you change the
password of the local user but domain user (both local and domain logon IDs
are the same), you may have different cached credentials. For this reasons,
you may experience some logon and access issues. To fix the problem, you
need to find out which passwords need to change. If you want to delete the
credentials, you need to go to registry.
