How to Find User Account’s OU in Windows Domain

There are multiple ways of checking the OU and you can use any of below examples to determine which current OU is assigned to your user account. Before we go through, you may refer to this article from Wikipedia on getting a bit information on OU.

Launch the command prompt and enter below command,

C:\Users\ITsiti>gpresult /r | find "OU"
    CN=ITsiti,OU=Users,DC=Kelantan

Or, use this command prompt,
