New Simple-Talk.com Article: The Active Directory Recycle Bin in Windows Server 2008 R2

Back in March this year I saw a presentation by James O’Neill and Richard Siddaway about some of the new PowerShell features in Windows Server 2008 R2, in particular Active Directory. I was fascinated by the new ‘Recycle Bin’ feature, which is enabled via PowerShell, and could instantly see that this would be a great and long overdue new feature. I am not alone in this; when Mark Minasi recently appeared on the Run As Radio podcast he said the AD Recycle Bin was the standout feature of the whole Server 2008 R2 release, not just the Active Directory part.

So I have spent some time checking it out which has resulted in my latest article on the Simple-Talk.com website being based on it, hope you find it useful.
