Adding a User to the Local Administrators Group with Verification

This script will add a user to the local administrators group. It will also verify if the user is added and write both a registry key for the add/remove programs and a key for the WMI entry so that it will appear in a WMI query. There were already scripts out there to do this function, but I wrote this one for our SCCM build so that there is a verification in the build process that one of the accounts we add to the local admin group is actually there. All you have to do is to add the name of the account to the variable $Member.

You can download the script from here.
