Ansible can do that. https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/win_domain_group_membership_module.html#win-domain-group-membership-module
You can add new PCs to domain, and change their group membership, you just need to know computer names in advance.

Which is just a layer on top of Powershell. The Active Directory Powershell module is still required.

It's not required, or that module is included already in Windows 10 by default. Because I haven't had to install it on any machine I managed with Ansible.

"win_domain_group_membership requires the ActiveDirectory PS module to be installed"
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/lib/ansible/modules/windows/win_domain_group_membership.ps1

They have it in the documentation as well "This must be run on a host that has the ActiveDirectory powershell module installed."

@dashrender It is SA

@Dashrender What's weird though is I've gotten them to work here and there despite using msiexec. BUT then I changed some things around (added spaces....spaces make life hell but I wanted to see if I had to use " " around the path or not...utter failure, upon changing things back....I broke the installs)

But yeah, I'm happy 🙂
Now I just need to add what I've figured out to the other programs, which a few auto-activate lol, testing will have to be live.
Ugh then I have to make more deployments for our Autodesk products, which actually isn't that bad..
