Another User Export Script

Posted on April 1, 2013August 11, 2019 by Alan

I have already written a script to dump user information into a spreadsheet here, so why do it again?  User AD Export.vbs is different in that it uses the modern LDAP interface (instead of the lame WinNT interface I used earlier), and is therefore much faster.  It was written for a user audit, so it does not export things like phone numbers and addresses, but you do get the user’s name, display name, description, mail address, whether a smart card is required, SamAccount name, UPN, whether the account is disabled,  the date created, date password last set, last logon, password age, expiration date, and AD path.

It will allow you to navigate to the starting OU in any domain in your forest.  It does not require elevated rights to run, and exports the data to Excel.

Please Note

All the scripts are saved as .txt files. Newer files have a “View Script” button which will let you save or open a script in notepad. For earlier posts, the easiest way to download with IE is to right click on the link and use “Save Target As”. Rename file from Name_ext.txt to Name.ext.
