  1. In props.conf, set the TRANSFORMS-null attribute:
    [ActiveDirectory]
    TRANSFORMS-null= setnull
  2. Create a corresponding stanza in transforms.conf. Set DEST_KEY to "queue" and FORMAT to "nullQueue":
    [setnull]
    REGEX = \[ms_Mcs_AdmPwdExpirationTime\]
    DEST_KEY = queue
    FORMAT = nullQueue
  3. Restart Splunk Enterprise.

    field = ms_Mcs_AdmPwdExpirationTime
    the values ​​are still in the index
    Not working.  what did I indicate wrong?

There likely is an error in the regex, but to know that for sure we'll need to see some example data.

There's the problem.  The example data does not match the regex since none of them contain the string "ms_Mcs_AdmPwdExpirationTime".  You'll have to find a regular expression that matches all expected strings you wish to send to the null queue.

Again, to properly diagnose a regex problem we need to see the events that are to be matched.  Not just a tiny snippet, either.  Feel free to anonymize sensitive data.

Have you tested your regular expressions on a site like regex101.com?
