ICT-Hotlist TopicFind locked out Windows Domain Users with PowerShellHave some colleagues that use BYOD with their own (e-mail) synchronised programs? Changing their Windows passwords on their desktop, notebook or even through a Citrix portal results in log on problems? Then one of their devices might be using an old password to synchronise, resulting in an Active Directory user account lockout.This PowerShell script determines if someone is locked out from the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), and when the situation occurred. It reports :
No-one locked out
or a list formatted as:
Name Since Locked Out
Using this script on a Windows 7, 8 or 10 desktop? You may need to load the Active Directory module by
configuring RSAT.
