Windows8.1:Active Directory user search method

Step 1:
Domain-joined Windows 8.1 devices: Right-click on the Windows mark at the bottom left of the desktop screen where you are logged in as a domain user-> select “File Explorer”.

Step 2:
Select “Network” -> “Network”.

Step 3:
Select “Search Active Directory”.

Windows 8/8.1 edition does not have the domain join feature, so the “Search Active Directory” screen does not appear. Also, it is not displayed when logging in as a local user.

Step 4:
In the location setting item, select the domain name to which the user you want to search belongs, or Entire Directory.

Step 5:
Enter the user name you want to search for in “Name” -> Select “Find Now”.

Step 6:
Confirm that the search results are displayed.

You can check the detailed settings by double-clicking the displayed user.

On the [General] tab, you can check the First name / Last name, Telephone, E-mail, etc.

On the [Address] tab, you can check the P.O.Box, City, etc.

On the [Business] tab, you can check the Job title, Company name, etc.
