Hello Salem Mubarak,

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Unfortunately, from my searches, there is no built-in Group Policy or registry setting to save all user logs in Active Directory to a file. However, you can create a custom solution using Powershell scripts. PowerShell provides powerful AD cmdlets that can easily query and export details of AD objects.

You can create a PowerShell script that collects detailed information about all users in Active Directory, including username, computer name (if a workstation member), OU, date and time, and outputs the results to a CSV file.

If you need help with this, I suggest you post a new question on the forum with the PowerShell tag specifically to discuss how to create a script to collect all user log information and save it to a file.

I hope the information above is helpful.

Best Regards,

Yanhong Liu
