Your Assignment

You are the directory administrator for Brightway Logistics. During a recent restructuring on the domain controller BWL-DC02 (brightway.local), a child OU named Endpoints was created inside several departmental OUs. The team has since standardized on a single company-wide Endpoints OU, so the departmental copies are now redundant. Remove the leftover Endpoints OU from the Finance, Operations, and Procurement OUs.

Tip: these OUs were created with accidental-deletion protection on. You will need to make the protection setting visible and clear it before an OU can be removed.
