    change local administrator rights to a user rights

    Hi, I need some urgent help from you all. I’m running a Domain with about 20 user client PCs. All these users are having Administrator rights on their local PCs. Now as all are connected to a domain, I wanted to know if there is any batch file / Script using which I can make them a normal user instead of Administrator. If it cannot done with a batch file, please let me know how can it can be done from the Group Policy?

    It will be appreciated if provided in step by step procedure. Many thanks.

    I have done this long time ago for one of my friend’s domain. I don’t remember perfectly but I guess you can do it using this logon script:

    net localgroup users /add %username%
    net localgroup administrators /delete %username%

    Reply back with the results.

    You can do it from the ‘Restricted Groups’ option. There use to be the following two options:

    1. Members of this group
    2. This group is a member of


    Using this option you can remove or add any additional Administrator.

    That’s correct FRIESEN. Option ‘Restricted Groups’ allows us to reset the membership back to a defined set -or- maintain certain members. You can change all your user’s rights from Administrator to normal user right from here.
