I have not been able to successfully run the PowerShell script on the specified website. I understand the explanation of why it is difficult to gather cross-domain memberships, but I am struggling with running the PowerShell script.

Has anyone else been successful? If so, can you please provide instructions on how you saved and executed this script?
Thank you!
Hello looking for help with this script. It appears to work as expected, gets the expired users, disables the account and moves them to the correct OU. What I can't figure out is why I keep getting the same results each time it runs. I've verified the activity from a previous run, however, after running the script again it still gives me the same list of users that are no longer in the OU, as they have been moved to "disabled".

Hello,
When I try Invoke-ASCmd I get the error 'Invoke-ASCmd' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet.
So, I attempted to install the module sqlserver module.
This yields:
NuGet provider is required to continue. PowerShellGet requires NuGet provider version '2.8.5.201' or newer to interact with NuGet-based repositories. The NuGet provider must be available in 'C:\Program Files\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies' or...
But when I check the required directory the following exists
AppData\Local\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies\nuget\2.8.5.208\Microsoft.PackageManagement.NuGetProvider.dll
The error suggests I run the following, but I am not sure what to do...
Get-PackageProvider -ListAvailable
Any ideas what to do?

<InstrumentationKey>xxxxxx-xxxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxxxx</InstrumentationKey>
Does anyone know whey it would be adding the extra text?

Hi! I posted this in the DHCP/DNS forum but since it's powershell, they could not be of any help and they suggested I tried this here...
For a specific task, we need to clear only the cache for a specific zone (not the whole cache...)
I can use Clear-Dns
Clear-DnsServerCache-ComputerName"DNS-Server"-CacheScope"ac" or
Clear-DnsServerCache-ComputerName"DNS-Server"-CacheScope"DC=ac"
don't work...any idea on how to use the CacheScopre parameter ? The documentation only mentions it's a string...

Thanks!
The billing invoices from Microsoft for O365 services only include "Online Services" as the Product details. We have 4 warehouses, and Accounting needs to post these invoices to the appropriate warehouse, according to the number of users with various O365 licenses.
Would someone be able to provide me with a Powershell script that outputs a list of all licensed users, their specific license, and the City that is found in their AD. We have our OnPremise AD synced with O365 and Azure AD.
Thanks in advance.

Hi All,
I don't use PowerShell that much and am stuck on a query.
I am trying to logoff any Switched User account within Windows 10 that has been inactive for more than 2 hours. I have found the following code that logs off any user that is marked as Disconnected.
quser | Select-String "Disc" | ForEach {logoff ($_.tostring() -split ' +')[2]}But I want to logoff any user that is marked as disconnected (Disc), and who's idle time is more that 120 (2 hours).
Is this possible? Even if the query just displayed anything over 120 within the "IDLE TIME".
Thanks

I am trying to have my PS script wait until IE is closes before continuing on with the script. I have tried the -wait and the -nonewwindow options (as found in other posting) - but that does not work. My best guess is that IE is launching a new process when it loads and so PS detects the first process closing and continues on. I have also tried saving the process in a variable and looping in a Start-Sleep until "Process.HasExited".
$IEProcess = Start-Process -FilePath $DefaultBrowser -ArgumentList $OWAURL -PassThruBut nothing I have tried is working - the script continues on even though IE is still running.
Does anyone have other suggestions I might try? What I am trying to do is:
1) Give myself permissions to a mailbox.
2) Launch IE to our OWA site for that mailbox so that I can login and set an OOO reply for a user or other maintenance for the account while they are on extended leave.
3) Close IE
4) Remove my permissions once IE is closef.
The problem being my permissions are being removed before I even have a chance to login to OWA. So I need the script to "wait" until I close IE and THEN remove my permissions.
Thanks

Hello,
I'm attempting to create a scheduled task with PowerShell (Server 2016, PowerShell 5.1) WITHOUT the trigger option for "Synchronize across time zones" selected. For example, using this simple script will create a task with the option selected. I have been unable to not have the "synchronize across time zones" selected.
>>
# define the action for the new scheduled task
$action = New-ScheduledTaskAction -Execute 'notepad.exe'
# setup our trigger, when we are going to run the task
$trigger = New-ScheduledTaskTrigger -Daily -At 10:15am
# register/create the scheduled task with all the information we collected
Register-ScheduledTask -Action $action -Trigger $trigger -TaskName "test" -Description "test"

Well the devs finally got the Soc Sec with hyphens in the data so now I thought I can search and replace.
This works fine but just displays it on my screen. I would like it to change the text in the files.
Select-String FilePath\*txt -Pattern '\d{3}-\d{2}-(\d{4})'|ForEach-Object{$_ -Replace '\d{3}-\d{2}-(\d{4})' ,'XXX-XX-XXXX'}If anyone could steer me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. thanks
Hello all,
I have created a script that depends on parameters. For example:
By default only -Main1, -Main2 or -Main3 should be accepted as a parameter. If -Main1 is used, then only -sub1, -sub2 and -sub3 should be accepted. If -Main3 is used, then only -sub4 should be accepted.
I was thinking of dynamic parameters, but maybe there is a better solution available. That is why I am asking here.
Your feedback is appreciated and with kind regards,
Willem-Jan
Hi all,
I am looking for a way to find users with a duplicate SamAccountName/Name/Name/UPN... basically if a user has 2 or more accounts (excluding admin accounts). The way I am checking it now is by creating a CSV file with users filtered on duplicated Surnames (and excluding some OU's which contain Removed Accounts and Administration Accounts).
So that part is fixed, but now I have to manually check the Surnames to see if it has a duplicate Firstname (GivenName). Could you help me find a way to put this in Powershell as well?
I was thinking of a solution like: If Surname and Givenname -eq 1; then show results…
This is my code so far:
$users = Get-ADUser -Filter {(SN -like "a*")} -Properties SN
$filteredOU = $users | Where-Object -FilterScript { ($_.distinguishedname -notlike '*LSA*') -and ($_.distinguishedname -notlike '*Removed*') -and ($_.distinguishedname -notlike '*Disabled*') }
$idLookup = $filteredOU | ForEach-Object { $idLookup = @{} } { if($_.Surname) { $idLookup[$_.Surname] += 1 } } { $idLookup }
$filteredUsers = $filteredOU | Where-Object { if($_.Surname) { $idLookup[$_.Surname] -gt 1 } }
$filteredUsers | Select-Object -Property SN, Givenname, Name, DistinguishedName | Sort-object -property SN |
Export-Csv -Path H:\Test\Duplicate_ADusers4.csv -NoTypeInformationFeel free to correct me and make the code much better, as i am in an early stage of learning Powershell.
Thanks in advance.
