Please enter valid administrator login to access your local AD

Problem: While configuring the Local AD settings in AD Connect Sync following error is received, Please enter valid administrator login to access your local AD.



Reason: Local machine admin account has fewer privileges on the Active Directory for CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations performed by this tool due to which upon configuring the local Administrator account, the tool throws the aforementioned error.

Resolution: To solve this matter, provide the Domain\Administrator account instead of the local Administrator account. and then save settings.
