Answer:

Explanation:
Starting in Windows Server 2008 R2, Active Directory now implements a true recycle bin. No longer will you
need an authoritative restore to recover deleted users, groups, OU’s, or other objects. Instead, it is now
possible to use PowerShell commands to bring back objects with all their attributes, backlinks, group
memberships, and metadata.
The amount of time that an object can be recovered is controlled by the Deleted Object Lifetime (DOL). This
time range can be set on the msDS-deletedObjectLifetime attribute. By default, it will be the same number of
days as the Tombstone Lifetime (TSL). The TSL set for a new forest since Windows Server 2003 SP1 has
been 180 days*, and since by default DOL = TSL, the default number of days that an object can be restored is
therefore 180 days. If tombstoneLifetime is NOT SET or NULL, the tombstone lifetime is that of the Windows
default: 60 days. This is all configurable by the administrator.

NT,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com” -Partition “CN=Configuration,DC=contoso,DC=com”
-Replace: @(“msDS-DeletedObjectLifetime” = 365)
