Retrieving windows user accounts
I'm trying to retrieve a list of all windows users, but all I can manage is the current user. I want to be able to connect software accounts to the windows accounts for automated login. How can I get a list of all windows users?

- You can use the System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry class to retrieve information on local users, groups, and services:
using(DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("WinNT://EDDINGS")) {
foreach(DirectoryEntry child in root.Children) {
if(child.SchemaClassName == "User") {
Console.WriteLine(child.Name);
}
}
}
SchemaClassName can also be Group or Service.

- What do you mean by "all Windows users"? All Windows Users currently logged onto a workstation? All local Windows user accounts? All Windows users in a domain? I would start looking at System.DirectoryServices to see if that can return the types of users you're looking for. A good article on this namespace is:
- I meant all local windows user accounts.
- use
System.DirectoryServices.
DirectorySearcher object to find all the User Account in your local system - You can use the System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry class to retrieve information on local users, groups, and services:
using(DirectoryEntry root = new DirectoryEntry("WinNT://EDDINGS")) {
foreach(DirectoryEntry child in root.Children) {
if(child.SchemaClassName == "User") {
Console.WriteLine(child.Name);
}
}
}
SchemaClassName can also be Group or Service. - Unfortunately System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher doesn't work against the local security authority because it's not searchable. Use System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry instead. (See code sample above.)
