This sounds like a complaint, but maybe someone has a solution. It's on our QB Desktop company file hosting machine ("server"). After updating and closing QBDT, then relaunching, right away I get "locked out", as it demands a password change for user "Admin", before I can do *anything*.
BUT I don't use "Admin" on this "server"... I use a different (nonadmin) login.
I click Cancel, that does nothing... I click anything, nothing happens... I have to End Task the app to "close" it.
What's worse is, we can't get QB opened to launch the Webapp "DBSync", which we need to sync data between QBDT and our CRM.
I can't reach the "Admin" user right now... they are on vacation, in a different country!
This is baffling, and kinda draconian, that Intuit codes this behavior into QBDT.
If there's no workaround, then, how can I submit this as a feature request/bug report?

There are 2 Admin credentials associated with every company file
