I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 using WorkGroup only (no Active Directory) with some local users and groups. Is that possible to change the primary group of some local users? I couldn't find a relevant button when setting local users and groups. Couldn't find on Google too.

It's necessary since I have to comply with the policy of one of the tools installed on this host.

If possible - how to do so?

Thanks

  • The users are members of "None" and "Dev". I'd like the primary group to be "Dev"

You can't set that in a workgroup, as the group 'memberof' change from computer to computer. there is no weight on the group membership.

A workaroung is to make the group Dev 'memberof' the group None.
