I installed Windows Admin Center v2 and it takes me to https://<PC-NAME>:6600 to log in, but it never asked me to set up an account. Is there a default username that is the PC name and the password is the Admin account password?

    Why is there a message board that does not provide answers? This is at the top of search results and clicking on answer just tells someone to go somewhere else to find answer. Why doesn't the person providing a response actually say something instead of sending 1000s of people somewhere else? These kinds of garbage posts are EVERYWHERE all over internet now. Message boards used to actually contain answers but now 70% of the posts are simply "Not my job" posts.

    You can log in with a domain admin account, username should be in the format <domain>&lt;username>

    Just upgraded my Windows Admin Center and ran into this issue. Tried logging in with Domain\Username and ******@my.domain.fqdn with an admin account, but still got access denied. I had to uninstall and reinstall to get it to work, but I lost all of my settings and had to start from scratch.
