Active Directory Users and Computers not showing all tabs in Windows 10 build 1511

Issue:
Missing tabs in AD Users and Computers (dsa.msc) in Windows 10 build 10586 (1511). Also unable to perform certain actions in AD Users and Computers.

Cause:
Problem is with the latest RSAT KB

Solution:
  • Start > Type Features, Click "Turn Windows features on or off"
  • Uncheck Remote Server Administration Tools, Click OK.
  • Open administrative command prompt and run:

wusa /uninstall /kb:2693643 /norestart

  • Reboot the computer
  • In "Turn Windows features on or off", "Remote Server Administration Tools" should no longer be available. 
  • Download and install the old RSAT version from

  • Check RSAT is now ticked in "Turn Windows features on or off"
  • Run dsa.msc
  • Check version in Help > About AD Users and Computers - should now be 10.0.10585.0 and should now show all tabs.
