Solution

 

Perform the following operations:
  1. Check the user belongs to the CHARON-GRP group
  2. Execute the "gpedit.msc" program and navigate to "Computer Configuration" → "Windows Settings" → "Security Settings" → "Local Policies" → "User Rights Assignment" and verify the "Lock pages in memory" policy contains the CHARON-GRP group. If not assign the CHARON-GRP group to the policy, the user must log off then log in for these settings to be taken into account

'gpedit' output example:
