Scan then delete old computer accounts in AD

[centraladminman]

Does anyone know of a way to query AD to find old computer accounts? In AD we have about 70 computer accounts but only 40 PCs. There are a lot of old computers that were not properly removed out of AD.

It would be nice if I had a script or tool I could run that would find accounts that haven't been used in like 6 months and just have them disabled or deleted.

Thanks!

Try running

dsquery computer -inactive 26

from a command line. It will return all inactive pc's in the last 26 weeks (6 months). You can pipe it to a text or csv file if you want.
