<br />
You need to make sure that you have a heading in the CSV called NAME, with all of the computers beneith. <br />
<br />
You will also need to modify the $OU vairable to whatever path you want move the AD computers. <br />

<pre><code id="code-20-40808953-1">$OU = &quot;ou=destinationOU,dc=domain,dc=com&quot;
$computers = import-csv &quot;c:\filename.csv&quot;
ForEach ($computer in $Computers) {
$Computer.Name
Get-ADComputer -Identity $Computer.Name -Properties Name, DistinguishedName |
Select Name, DistinguishedName |
Export-Csv &quot;c:\ComputerLocations.csv&quot; -nti
$ComputerMove = Import-Csv &quot;c:\ComputerLocations.csv&quot;
ForEach ($Com in $ComputerMove) {
$Comp.DistinguishedName
Move-ADOject -Identity $Comp.DistinguishedName -TargetPath $OU

Powershell to move computers names to a different OU

Windows PowerShell is a task automation and configuration management framework from Microsoft, consisting of a command-line shell and associated scripting language built on the .NET Framework. PowerShell provides full access to the Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI), enabling administrators to perform administrative tasks on both local and remote Windows systems as well as WS-Management and Common Information Model (CIM) enabling management of remote Linux systems and network devices.

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.
