I have a Restricted Group in a group policy in an organizational unit called org_unit_a
. This organizational unit has all the computers.
- The restricted group is
My_domain\Workstation Admins
- Has members:
My_domain\settings
- Is a member of:
Administrators
(or Järjestelmänvalvojat in Finnish)
In the local computer:
net localgroup "Administrators"
shows theMy_domain\Workstation admins
as a member groupnet user /domain settings
show the group membership toMy_domain\Workstation Admins
- If I try to enter My_domain\settings to UAC prompt, it just slaps me in the face with:
The requested operation requires elevation
If user settings
has been set as a local administrator via restricted groups then why Windows doesn't accept those credentials when entered in the UAC prompt?
