    Hello,

    Is there any query available to check when the SQL Server service account password changed last time?

    Regards.

    Thanks.

    Probably not - it's not something that SQL Server controls. You'd be better off speaking to your AD administrator.

    If you are using a native SQL account, you can check in:

    sys.server_principals

    There is no date specifically for password changes, but the modify_date does get reset when the password is changed.
