Using the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) is a part of everyday life for many Windows administrators and help desk personnel. MMC TaskPad Views are a great way to bolster your everyday toolset, or to improve the interface of an MMC snap-in. Using a taskpad view, you can create links that will perform actions or execute programs.
For this example, I'll create a custom MMC with the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in. Open a MMC by going to your Start menu, selecting Run, typing MMC, then pressing Enter. Then, go to File , Add or Remove Snap-ins, and add the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in.
Left-click on an OU to select it, then right-click and select New TaskPad View.
