    In ADUC the attribute editor tab is only shown when you browse to objects, if use the the search option the attribute editor tab is not shown in the properties.

    If a user object was opened via "find" there is a trick to access the attribute editor tab:

    • open the account properties dialog
    • choose a memberof group of the account
    • close the account dialog
    • open the account again as member of the group

    Now the "attribute editor" tab is available
