    INFO: How to protect user accounts or groups against deletion by mistake

    This article applies to:

     

    ·         WebDir 4.0

     

    Description:

     

    Group owners can mistakenly delete groups from Active Directory by selecting the “delete” option from the action drop-down list on the search results page.

    Although WebDir provides sufficient protection against accidental deletion by displaying a  confirmation dialogue box but it still can be accident-prone for some users.

    There is another method to remove this risk altogether for groups.  The delete key can be removed from the action drop-down list.  To do this, follow these steps:

     

    ·         Go to WebDir’s system manager.

    ·         Go to the “Settings” tab.

    ·         Click “Add”.

    ·         In the “Key” field of the Add Setting dialog box, type “Group.OwnerDelete”.

    ·         In the “Value” field, type a numeric value of “0”.

     

    The above setting will remove the delete key in action menu for all users including group owners, with the exception of Administrators and Helpdesk personnel..
