We know that we must abandon legacy environments at all costs, but this is not always possible for several reasons, so I thought of a way to maintain this type of environment without compromising the credentials that authenticate with Kerberos:

1- Login to a machine running Windows 11 or 10

2- Log in to the domain administrator and change the password

3- Go back to the Windows 7 machine and do what you need

4-When finished, return your normal password using the 11/10 machine and 7 will never know your password
