После установки некоторых компонентов RSAT может потребоваться перезагрузка.
Компоненты RSAT не включены в состав Windows, а поставляются в виде Функции по требованию (Features on Demand). Это значит, что для установки RSAT ваш компьютер должен быть подключен к интернету. Windows загрузит и установит необходимые файлы с серверов Microsoft Update.
В предыдущих версиях Windows (до билда Windows 10 1809) пакет удаленного администрирования серверов RSAT устанавливался в виде отдельного файла MSU обновления, которое нужно было вручную скачивать и установить с сайта Microsoft (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45520)
После установки пакета KB2693643 вы можете включить необходимые компоненты RSAT в разделе Control Panel -> Programs and Feature -> Turn Windows features on or off (
optionalfeatures.exe
). Разверните Remote Server Administration Tools и выберите необходимые компоненты для установки.
Если попытаться установить KB2693643 на более новых билдах Windows 10 или 11, появится ошибка:
Windows Update Standalone Installer encountered and error: 0x8024001d
После установки, графические mmc оснастки RSAT будут доступны в панели управления в секции Administrative Tools (Control Panel\System and Security\Administrative Tools) или в папке:
%ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Administrative Tools
.
Установка RSAT в Windows с помощью PowerShell
Вы можете установить компоненты администрирования RSAT в Windows 10 и 11 с помощью PowerShell.
С помощью следующей PowerShell команды можно вывести список компонентов RSAT, установленных на вашем компьютере:
Get-WindowsCapability -Name RSAT* -Online | Select-Object -Property DisplayName, State
В нашем примере инструменты управления DHCP и DNS установлены (
Installed
), а все остальные модуль RSAT отсутствуют (
NotPresent
).
Для установки RSAT в Windows используется PowerShell командлет Add-WindowsCapability.
Чтобы установить конкретный инструмент RSAT, например инструменты управления AD (в том числе консоль ADUC из модуля Active Directory для Windows Powershell), выполните команду:
Add-WindowsCapability –online –Name Rsat.ActiveDirectory.DS-LDS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0
Для установки консоли управления DNS и модуля PowerShell DNSServer, выполните:
Add-WindowsCapability –online –Name Rsat.Dns.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0
И т.д.

Чтобы установить только отсутствующие компоненты RSAT, выполните:
Get-WindowsCapability -Name RSAT* -Online | where State -EQ NotPresent | Add-WindowsCapability –Online
Теперь убедитесь, что инструменты RSAT установлены (статус Installed);
Как установить Remote Server Administration Tools в Windows Server 2022,2019,2016?
В Windows Server для установки RSAT не нужен доступ в интернет. Компоненты RSAT можно устанавливать при установке соответствующих ролей или фич Windows Server, либо можно установить их через Server Manager (Add roles and Features -> Features -> Remote Server Administration Tools). Все компоненты RSAT разбиты на две секции: Feature Administration Tools и Role Administration Tools. Выберите необходимые компоненты и нажмите Next -> Next.
Для установки RSAT в Windows Server используется командлет установки компонентов и ролей — Install-WindowsFeature. Вывести список доступных компонентов RSAT в Windows Server 2022, 2019 и 2016:
Get-WindowsFeature| Where-Object {$_.name -like "*RSAT*"}| ft Name,Installstate
Для установки выбранного компонента RSAT, укажите его имя. Например, установим консоль диагностики лицензирования RDS:
Install-WindowsFeature RSAT-RDS-Licensing-Diagnosis-UI
Установить консоль удаленного управления Hyper-V Manager и PowerShell модуль Hyper-V:
Get-WindowsFeature | Where-Object {$_.Name -like "RSAT-Hyper-V-Tools"}| Install-WindowsFeature -IncludeAllSubFeature
Установленные графические консоли RSAT доступны из Server Manager или через панель управления.
Ошибка 0x800f0954 при установке RSAT в Windows
Если ваш компьютер Windows настроен на получение обновлений с локального сервера обновлений WSUS или SCCM (Configuration Manager) SUP, то при установке RSAT из графического интерфейса, Add-WindowsCapability или DISM вы получите ошибку.
В этом случае Windows будет пытаться загрузить пакет RSAT с вашего локального сервера обновлений и вернет ошибку 0x800f0954:
Чтобы игнорировать локальный WSUS при установке дополнительных компонентов Windows и Features On Demand (в том числе RSAT) нужно настроить специальный параметр групповых политики:
- Откройте редактор локальной GPO –
gpedit.msc
или используйте доменную консоль управления GPO –
gpmc.msc
); - Перейдите в раздел Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System;
- Включите политику Specify settings for optional component installation and component repair, и включите опцию Download repair content and optional features directly from Windows Updates instead of Windows Server Updates Services (WSUS) (опция “Скачайте содержимое для восстановления и дополнительные компненты непосредственно из Центра обновления Windows вместо использования службы WSUS”);
- Сохраните изменения и обновите настройки групповых политик (
gpupdate /force
). - Перезапустите службу Windows Update:
net stop wuauserv
net start wuauserv
Теперь установка RSAT через PowerShell или DISM должна выполняться без ошибок.
Некоторые параметры реестра могут блокировать подключение к Microsoft Update при получении компонентов RSAT. Если при установке RSAT появляется ошибка 0x8024002e, измените значения следующий параметров реестра в ветке
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate
:
- DoNotConnectToWindowsUpdateInternetLocations = 0
- DisableWindowsUpdateAccess = 0
Затем перезапустите службу wuauserv.
Установка RSAT в Windows в офлайн режиме
Если вы не можете открыть прямой доступ с рабочей станции к серверам Microsoft Update, вы можете воспользоваться офлайн установкой RSAT (рекомендуется для корпоративных сетей без прямого доступа в Интернет).
Для офлайн установки RSAT нужно скачать ISO образ диска с компонентами FoD для вашей версии Windows 10/11 с сайта Microsoft или из личного кабинета на сайте лицензирования Microsoft (Volume Licensing Service Center, VLSC):
- Для Windows 10 2004 — https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/language-packs (FOD Disk 1 ISO)
- Для Windows 11 21H2/22H2- https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/windows-11-language-packs (Language and Optional Features ISO)
Например, для Windows 10 2004 x64 нужно скачать образ 19041.1.191206-1406.vb_release_amd64fre_FOD-PACKAGES_OEM_PT1_amd64fre_MULTI.iso (около 5 Гб). Распакуйте образ в сетевую папку. У вас получится набор *.cab файлов, среди которых есть компоненты RSAT.
Теперь для установки компонентов RSAT на рабочей станции Windows нужно указывать путь к данному сетевому каталогу с FoD в параметре -Source:
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name Rsat.ActiveDirectory.DS-LDS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0 -LimitAccess -Source \\msk-fs01\Distr\Windows-FOD\Win101903x64\
Также вы можете указать путь к каталогу с компонентами FoD с помощью указанной выше групповой политики. Для этого в параметре Alternative source file path нужно указать UNC путь к каталогу с файлами FoD.
Или можете задать этот параметр через реестр отдельной политикой, указав путь к каталогу в параметр LocalSourcePath (тип REG_Expand_SZ) в ветке реестра HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Servicing.
После этого, пользователи смогут самостоятельно устанавливать компоненты RSAT через графический интерфейс добавления компонент Windows 10.
Частые ошибки установки Remote Server Administration Tools в Windows
- 0x8024402c, 0x80072f8f – Windows не может поучить доступ к серверам обновления Windows для получения компонентов RSAT. Проверьте доступ в интернет или установите компоненты из локального образа FoD:

How to Install Remote Server Administration Tools on Windows Server
No Internet access is required to install RSAT on Windows Server. The RSAT tools can be installed when you install the appropriate roles or features of Windows Server, or you can install them by using the Server Manager (Add Roles and Features -> Features -> Remote Server Administration Tools). All RSAT components are divided into two sections: Feature Administration Tools and Role Administration Tools. Select the tools you want to install and click Next -> Next.
Use the Install-WindowsFeature cmdlet to install RSAT on Windows Server. List RSAT tools available on Windows Server 2022, 2019, and 2016:
Get-WindowsFeature| Where-Object {$_.name -like "*RSAT*"}| ft Name,Installstate
Specify the name of the selected RSAT component to be installed. For example, let’s install the RDS Licensing Diagnosis console:
Install-WindowsFeature RSAT-RDS-Licensing-Diagnosis-UI
Install the Hyper-V Manager remote management console and the Hyper-V PowerShell module:
Get-WindowsFeature | Where-Object {$_.Name -like "RSAT-Hyper-V-Tools"}| Install-WindowsFeature -IncludeAllSubFeature
You can access installed graphical RSAT consoles from Server Manager or through the Control Panel.
Fix RSAT Installation Error 0x800f0954 on Windows
If your Windows computer is configured to receive updates from a local update server (WSUS) or SCCM (Configuration Manager) SUP, you will receive an error message when you try to install RSAT using the GUI, Add-WindowsCapability or DISM:
0x800f0954 No features to install
In this case, Windows attempts to download the RSAT package from your local update server and returns 0x800f0954 error.
To ignore local WSUS during the installation of additional Windows features and Features On Demand (including RSAT), you must enable a special Group Policy option
- Open the local GPO editor
gpedit.mscor use the domain Group Policy Management Console (gpmc.msc); - Go to the Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> System;
- Enable the policy Specify settings for optional component installation and component repair, and check the option Download repair content and optional features directly from Windows Updates instead of Windows Server Updates Services (WSUS);
- Save the changes and update Group Policy settings (
gpupdate /force); - Restart the Windows Update service:
net stop wuauserv
net start wuauserv
The installation of RSAT using PowerShell or DISM should now be completed without any errors.
Connection to Microsoft Update when retrieving RSAT components may be blocked by some Windows registry settings. Change the values of the following registry parameters in the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate key if you get error 0x8024002e when installing RSAT:
DoNotConnectToWindowsUpdateInternetLocations= 0DisableWindowsUpdateAccess= 0
Then restart the wuauserv service.
Offline Install RSAT on Windows Using the FoD ISO Image
If you cannot access the Microsoft Update servers directly from your workstation, you can use the offline installation of RSAT (recommended for disconnected networks without Internet access).
You must download the ISO image containing the FoD components for your version of Windows from the Microsoft website (or from the Volume Licensing Service Center, VLSC) to install RSAT offline.
- For Windows 10 2004 and newer — https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/language-packs (FOD Disk 1 ISO)
- For Windows 11 21H2/22H2– https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/windows-11-language-packs (Language and Optional Features ISO)
For example, for Windows 10 22H2 x64 you need to download the image file 19041.1.191206-1406.vb_release_amd64fre_FOD-PACKAGES_OEM_PT1_amd64fre_MULTI.iso (about 5 GB). Extract the contents of the ISO image to the shared network folder. You will get a set of *.CAB files, including RSAT components.
Now, to install RSAT components on a Windows workstation, specify the path to this shared network directory with FoD in the -Source parameter:
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name Rsat.ActiveDirectory.DS-LDS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0 -LimitAccess -Source \\fs01\Windows-FOD\Win102004x64\
You can also use the above Group Policy option to specify the path to the directory containing the FoD image components. Specify the UNC path to the directory containing the FoD files in the Alternative source file path parameter.
Or, you can set this parameter in the registry with a GPP by specifying the path to the FoD directory in the LocalSourcePath parameter (REG_Expand_SZ) under the registry key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Servicing.
Users will now be able to install the RSAT components in Windows on their own using the graphical interface of Manage Optional Features.
Common Remote Server Administration Tools Installation Errors on Windows:
- 0x8024402c, 0x80072f8f – Windows cannot access the Microsoft Update servers to download RSAT files. Check that you have Internet access or install the components from a local FoD image:
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name Rsat.Dns.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0 -LimitAccess -Source E:\RSAT\ - 0x800f081f – check the path to the directory containing the RSAT components specified in the
–Sourceparameter; - 0x800f0950 – the error is similar to 0x800f0954;
- 0x80070490 – check and repair your Windows image using DISM:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
In this post I will show you how to install RSAT features on Windows 10 (since 1809) using PowerShell and an XML containing features to enable. I will also explain how to enable it through SCCM.
Since the Windows 10 October 2018 Update (since Windows 10 1809), RSAT is included as a set of “Features on Demand” in Windows 10, meaning you can’t install it like before using an EXE file.
See the note on the RSAT download page.

Long time back in year 2015, we shared you following guide to install Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) tools in Windows 10:
Install Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) In Windows 10
In Windows 10 version prior to V1809, you can use above linked guide to install RSAT tools. However with Windows 10 V1809 or later, Microsoft removed the capability to install RSAT as add-on. Instead, the Redmond software-giant designated the RSAT tools as optional features in V1809 or later. So in this nutshell, now RSAT tools are features on demand – if you need them do install them.
In this article, we’ll see how you can install RSAT tools on your Windows 10 Version 1809 or later.
Page Contents
How To Install RSAT Tools On Windows 10 V1809 Or Later
Method 1 – Using Settings App
1. Right click Start Button or press + X keys and select Settings.
2. In the Settings app, navigate to Apps & features > Optional features.
3. Under Apps & features, in corresponding right pane, click on Optional features.
4. Inside Options features, click on Add a feature button.
5. This will open Add an optional feature window, and you’ve to search for ‘rsat’ here. The result will include all RSAT tools, so you can manually select the features you want and hit Install button.
In the few moments, you selected RSAT features will be installed.
Check illustration of above mentioned steps in this video:
Method 2 – Using Windows PowerShell
1. Open administrative Windows PowerShell.
2. In the PowerShell window, type following cmdlet to confirm if RSAT tools is not installed on your system:
Get-WindowsCapability -Name RSAT* -Online
3. This will populate the list of RSAT features and against State, if you see NotPresent, this means the feature is not yet installed on your system. Another benefit of this list is that it mentions RSAT feature name which you can use with Add-WindowsCapacity cmdlet.
4. To install a RSAT feature selectively, you’ve can use this general cmdlet:
Add-WindowsCapability –online –Name "<RSAT Feature Name>"
You need to substitute correct RSAT feature name, for example Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "Rsat.WSUS.Tools~~~~0.0.1.0". You will need to stay connected to web to get the feature downloaded and installed.
UPDATE: If you’re on Windows 10 20H2 and above steps didn’t worked, try this suggestion (in comments below).
That’s it!

Installing RSAT on Windows 10 using Windows Settings
Since the October 2018 Windows Update, RSAT comes included as a set of on-demand features, which means that you don’t need to download RSAT online. To get started, click on the Start Menu → Settings → Apps. You will arrive at the list of Apps & Features. The default view will list the installed apps on your system. The list will be preceded by two links → Optional features & App execution aliases.
Use the Optional features link to see the list of installed features. As mentioned already, RSAT is an optional feature, so it is not installed by default. Click the Add a feature button, which is found right above the list. It will open a search dialog box. It will list all the features available for installation. Just search features related to RSAT by typing ‘RSAT’ in the search box.
— Click Add a feature —
You don’t have to install the whole set of tools. You can selectively choose the tools and install them. For instance, you can choose RSAT: DNS Server Tools and RSAT: DHCP Server tools only and install these. Once the installation is complete, you can go to Windows Administrative Tools to verify if the installation has been successful and see whether the Remote Server Administration Tools are available for use.
— Installed additional features —
As you can see, the Add a feature button can be used to selectively manage optional features and turn windows features on. These features can range anywhere from active directory domain services to group policy management, and from remote desktop administration to lightweight directory management. You can look into the full list of optional features related to Remote Server Administration Tools in different versions of Windows in the official documentation.
Installing RSAT on Windows 10 using PowerShell
RSAT for Windows 10 can also be installed using the command line, i.e., Windows PowerShell. For power users, using command-line tools is usually a preferable option when compared with the GUI alternative. The fact that the complete installation is scriptable makes this option so attractive to the power users.
Using PowerShell cmdlets to List Administration Tools for Windows
Open a PowerShell terminal and use one of the Windows PowerShell cmdlets called WindowsCapability module to find the list of optional features that contain the phrase RSAT:
Get -WindowsCapability -Online -Name “Rsat*”
Selecting Properties of Optional Features
The above command will list all the properties of the optional feature. The properties include description, capability name, sample package name, satellites, install size, and availability (OS-availability). For instance, let’s look at all the properties listed for the RSAT component used to manage the Remote Access role on Windows Server:
