Run it yourself

Three steps in PowerShell, four in C#. Every command copies with one click.

Install the module
Once. Windows PowerShell 5.1 or PowerShell 7 on Windows, macOS or Linux.
```
Install-Module ConsoleMonster -Scope CurrentUser
```
Save the program
Download it, or copy it from above into stale-accounts.ps1.
Download stale-accounts.ps1 View on GitHub
Run it
From the folder you saved it in.
```
./stale-accounts.ps1
```

Create a project
A plain console app; .NET 8 or later.
```
dotnet new console -n StaleAccounts; cd StaleAccounts
```
Save the project
The project selects one C# style at a time and restores ConsoleMonster.
Download StaleAccounts.csproj
Save both programs
Replace Program.cs and save Program.Fluent.cs beside it.
Download Program.cs Download Program.Fluent.cs View on GitHub
Run it

Or skip the copying. Every demo ships with the module and the project template.

Export-ConsoleDemo stale-accounts -Path ./stale-accounts.ps1

dotnet new install ConsoleMonster.Templates

dotnet new consolemonster --demo stale-accounts -n StaleAccounts

dotnet new install ConsoleMonster.Templates

dotnet new consolemonster --demo stale-accounts --DemoStyle Fluent -n StaleAccounts

Make it yours

Start with these, then read the rest of the file.

Fill the account rows from Get-ADUser with LastLogonDate, PasswordLastSet and msDS-UserPasswordExpiryTimeComputed.
Change the 60-day, 90-day and one-year rules to match your account policy.
Exclude service accounts you manage elsewhere, or give them their own panel.
