Normally, we can find the list of local users or groups created on a windows system from User Accounts applet in Control Panel,
Or, more in detail in Computer Management MMC, which is my favorite place when checking things like this.
But do you know you can actually get them more effectively through a built-in command line Net?
To get the list of local users on the computer, run
net users
C:\Windows\system32>net users User accounts for \\C-20130201 ------------------------------------------------------ Administrator Guest Kent The command completed successfully.
To get the very detail information about a particular user, including the password policies, login script used, and the local groups s/he belongs to, run
net users username
C:\Windows\system32>net users Kent User name Kent Full Name Kent Chen Comment User's comment Country/region code 000 (System Default) Account active Yes Account expires Never Password last set 01/02/2013 1:10:37 PM Password expires Never Password changeable 01/02/2013 1:10:37 PM Password required Yes User may change password Yes Workstations allowed All Logon script User profile Home directory Last logon 01/02/2013 1:10:37 PM Logon hours allowed All Local Group Memberships *Administrators *HomeUsers Global Group memberships *None The command completed successfully.
To get the list of local groups available, run
net localgroup
C:\Windows\system32>net localgroup Aliases for \\C-20130201 ----------------------------------------------- *__vmware__ *Access Control Assistance Operators *Administrators *Backup Operators *Cryptographic Operators *Distributed COM Users *Event Log Readers *Guests *HelpLibraryUpdaters *HomeUsers *Hyper-V Administrators *IIS_IUSRS *Network Configuration Operators *Performance Log Users *Performance Monitor Users *Power Users *Remote Desktop Users *Remote Management Users *Replicator *SQLServer2005SQLBrowserUser$C-20130201 *SQLServerMSASUser$C-20130201$MSSQLSERVER *Users *WinRMRemoteWMIUsers__ *WSS_ADMIN_WPG *WSS_WPG The command completed successfully.
To get the list of members who belong to a specific group, run
net localgroup groupname
C:\Windows\system32>net localgroup administrators Alias name administrators Comment Administrators have complete and unrestricted access to the computer/domain Members --------------------------------------------------------- Administrator Kent MHNETWORK\Domain Admins The command completed successfully.
What’s more powerful is that if you run the same net commands on a domain controller that hosts a lot more user accounts, groups than a local workstation holds, such as a command like below returns the full domain groups you have created in the same DC.
Net Group
Give it a try, if you have access to a domain controller.
