As usual with Microsoft, it seems that have come up with a “better” idea for how to install the Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 10 versions later than the October 2018 Update. <\/p>\n
In the search, enter “Manage optional features” and click “Add a feature.”<\/p>\n
And then the brilliant engineers at Microsoft, thought it would be so much better if we had install each component one at a time. So, pick and chose at your will. Click an RSAT option and then click Install. At least, they will queue. To get a status, just go back to the previous screen.<\/p>\n
You need to reboot once you have all the features installed.<\/p>\n
To install (or reinstall) the ActiveDirectory module, I think the only feature required it the “RSAT: Active Directory Domain Services and Lightweight Directory Services Tools”. It was not in “RSAT: Server Manager.”<\/p>\n
Then, from a administrator Powershell windows, install the module:
\nPS> Install-Module ActiveDirectory<\/p>\n
I had to re-install RSAT and the ActiveDirectory module after update to version 1909.<\/p>\n
I have yet to come across the powershell equivalent to just install the tools. I will update this if I find it. <\/p>\n
This is the best way to install the powershell ActiveDirectory module, because it actually works:<\/p>\n
$JGZSession <\/em>= New-PSSession -ComputerName domaincontroller<\/em>
\nExport-PSsession -Session $JGZSession <\/em>-Module ActiveDirectory -OutputModule RSATADModule<\/em>
\nRemove-PSSession -Session $JGZSession<\/em>
\nImport-Module RSATADModule<\/em>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As usual with Microsoft, it seems that have come up with a “better” idea for how to install the Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 10 versions later than the October 2018 Update.
