Windows 10: No Windows security event is generated for adding a user account to local administrators'group

Hello,I noticed that on some client endpoints, when someone adds a local or domain joined account to local administrators' group, no event entry with ID 4732,4735 is generated for it. I searched a lot and checked group policy settings and installed software like syslog forwarders but couldn't find any symptoms why this happens.

Show Local users and Groups


Hello Frank, and welcome to Ten Forums.

If you have the Windows 10 Home edition, then it will not have Local Users and Groups (lusrmgr.msc) included in it. It's only available in the Pro and Enterprise editions instead.

If you like, you could use step 3 in OPTION THREE of the tutorial below list users in a group.

Grant a Local Administrator Privileges for Domain User

Hi Ali Swadi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



As Bill Smithers rightly mentioned in the above post,
TechNet would be the forums for your query regarding setting group policies on domain environment.



For basic information, you may want to refer the following articles:

• Active Directory Accounts
  
• Local Accounts
  
• Appendix H: Securing Local
  Administrator Accounts and Group

  Account to a Local Administrator Group

Show Local users and Groups


Hello,
I want to get a list of Local Users and Groups as shown in the first screen shot (taken from the Web).
When I run Computer Management as administrator that information is not available under
Computer Management > System Tools (second screen shot - my computer)
How can I get this information?






Thanks
