Is there saved settingd location for DSA.msc
Is there a location that saves the last OU or Container the users expanded.
I know there are switches like /RDN /Server and /Domain that can be used, but they limit the ability to see other parent OU's.
One thing I noticed is that when I close out of ADUC and I was in a child OU and the next time I open ADUC the OU is the one that expanded and selected.
Is there a location that this is saved like registry or ini ?

If you open dsa.msc with the /rdn switch like the one I mentioned it will open dsa only with that OU and the child nodes. None of the other OU's will display, nor is dsa aware they exist.
My goal is to open dsa with all nodes acessseable and have a certain OU expanded and focused.
Like when you expand a OU then close dsa and when you reopen dsa at a later time that OU is expanded and in focus.
I hope that makes it clearer.

This is possible
When you make new taskpad view, you need to save it 1st time as custom console
and then expand your intended OU structure upto last node
Now if you close the MMC it will ask you for saving the MMC console, save here and you will get expanded OU structure next time while all other top level OUs and objects are also visible and accessible
I have tested it and working fine

OU's sorry.
You need to select required node (OU) in custom mmc console and then close it out
during closing it will ask you for saving the view
Just save it and then open it again
It should start on same OU last you on

This was not the answer I was looking for, but it was a very useful piece of information that I did not know about before and that is why I am awarding the points
