Find users with administrator rights on certain computers using PowerShell 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Yes you can do that. The string containing the username is split and only the username section is kept.
If you look at $uName, this is $name[2] replacing the , with nothing.
So you will want to get $name[1] which will contain either the host name of the pc or the domain name. It will need some tidying as it will possibly contain other characters. Once you have it tidied up you can do something like $dname = $name[1]
$uname = $dname, $name[2] -join “”This is example code and won’t work if you just paste it in.
