Hi,
is it still possible to configure delegation on a Windows 7 or WIndows 8 computer to manage AD Users ?
For example if I want to delegate control on a specific OU and I want to create a specific MMC (with specific Taskpad view) for that, Can I still do that on Windows 7 /8 ?
I was able to create a custom view MMC on Win 7/8 but didn't find any way to create a custom Taskpad view for them.
If it is not possible, is there any other solution ?
Thanks

You can customize the view. Correct? Is that what you are looking for?

Hi,
what I was looking for is an option like with customized MMC in WinXP where you can choose which parameters you want to be displayed when you right click on an object like reset password, disable account, etc...
Thanks

That option is still available with current/new MMC. The process is same!
