# Automatically Disabling Inactive User Accounts in Active Directory
I present a script in the Windows PowerShell scripting language that will allow you to disable user accounts that have been inactive for a certain number of days and add a description with the date when the disconnect was performed.
Disabled user accounts will be transferred to the appropriate organizational unit, and a log file will be created with a list of disabled user accounts.
You need to open the script in a text editor or Windows PowerShell ISE and change several values so that the script runs correctly in your organization.
- In the variable “LogFolder”, you must specify the path to the folder where the log files will be created. These files will contain a list of disabled user accounts.
- In the “OU” variable, you must specify the path to the organizational unit where your organization's user accounts are stored.
- In the “InactiveUserOU” variable, you must specify the path to the organizational unit where disabled user accounts in your organization will be transferred.
- In the variable “UnusedDays”, specify the days after inactive user accounts are disabled.
Automate script execution through the task scheduler. To do this, you need to create a service account under which the task will be launched and also delegate to this account the necessary permissions to the organizational unit where user accounts are stored.

hey everyone,
💾 I’ve been in the IT game for over 20 years, cutting my teeth with some big names like [IBM](https://www.linkedin.com/in/heyvaldemar/), [Thales](https://www.linkedin.com/in/heyvaldemar/), and [Amazon](https://www.linkedin.com/in/heyvaldemar/). These days, I wear the hat of a DevOps Consultant and Team Lead, but what really gets me going is Docker and container technology - I’m kind of obsessed!
💛 I have my own IT [blog](https://www.heyvaldemar.com/), where I’ve built a [community](https://discord.gg/AJQGCCBcqf) of DevOps enthusiasts who share my love for all things Docker, containers, and IT technologies in general. And to make sure everyone can jump on this awesome DevOps train, I write super detailed guides (seriously, they’re foolproof!) that help even newbies deploy and manage complex IT solutions.
🚀 My dream is to empower every single person in the DevOps community to squeeze every last drop of potential out of Docker and container tech.
🐳 As a [Docker Captain](https://www.docker.com/captains/vladimir-mikhalev/), I’m stoked to share my knowledge, experiences, and a good dose of passion for the tech. My aim is to encourage learning, innovation, and growth, and to inspire the next generation of IT whizz-kids to push Docker and container tech to its limits.
Let’s do this together!
