If you have more than 10000 enabled user objects, you will need to use Powershell or another utility that allows you to run LDAP queries due to the 10000 object limit imposed on ADUC. To run the same queries using Powershell: Pre 8.2.1: (dsquery * -filter "(samAccountType=805306368)(objectSid=*)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)" -attr samaccountname -attrsonly -limit 0).count 8.2.1 and 8.5.x: (dsquery * -filter "(&(samAccountType=805306368)(objectSid=*)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(|(!objectclass=computer)(!serviceprincipalname=*:16993*)))" -attr samaccountname -attrsonly -limit 0).count 8.6.1 - 8.6.4: (dsquery * -filter "(&(samAccountType=805306368)(objectSid=*)(!userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)(!objectclass=computer)(!objectclass=hpqTarget))" -attr samaccountname -attrsonly -limit 0).count 8.7 and later: (dsquery * -filter "(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user)(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=512)(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2)))" -attr samaccountname -attrsonly -limit 0).count
