Windows: Installing RSAT Tools Online or Offline

Hi,

for newer Windows 10 releases the RSAT tools can’t be downloaded anymore, you have to install them directly from the internet or you have downloaded the Windows 10 Feature on demand DVD.

To find which tools are available use the Get-WindowsCapability command-let. This will retrieve a list of all “capabilities” containing RSAT in the name:

PS D:\>  Get-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "*RSAT*" 

To install the Rsat ActiveDirectory Tools form the internet use

PS D:\>  Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name Rsat.ActiveDirectory.DS-LDS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0

If you have a feature on demand DVD and the path to the source parameter. In the case I copied all to a share

PS D:\>  Get-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "*RSAT*" -Limitaccess -Source \\myServer\FeatureOnDemand$\1909

To install the Rsat ActiveDirectory Tools use

PS D:\>  Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name Rsat.ActiveDirectory.DS-LDS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0 -Limitaccess -Source \\myServer\FeatureOnDemand$\1909
