You are a system administrator. Your IT manager asked you to perform an inventory of defined local users and groups on all Windows Computers in your environment. Your manager also wants you to implement a random password generator policy for the Administrator user account to improve the management of these users and groups. Finally, you need to view the local users, groups, and password data on a computer.
