Application pool always getting stopped

I have a problem like SecurityTokenServiceApplicationPool always getting stopped when I am opening Sharepoint manager 2013.
After research for this problem on google and gone through the EventViewer and found that this is the problem with the user credentials for the applicationpool running under the specified user. Password for my user got expired.

Solution: Make sure password for the user is correct and it is not expired. If it is expired please update with new password.
