Has anyone used the moveTree utility ADSI connector in Windows Server 2019 version. It looks like the support tools is not available for download from Microsoft website. If anyone has reference it would be great. Looks like this Support Tool is on older version of Windows and not for newer version. 

Preparing for Integration (saviyntcloud.com)

This is the snippet -->

Active Directory allows you to move objects (user objects scoped for this connector) between domains in the same forest using the Movetree command-line utility. You must install the utility on your primary domain server. If the utility is not available in your Forest on a primary domain, download it for your Windows version from the Microsoft Support site. It is available as part of the Active Directory Support Tools installation package. Before running the Active Directory Support Tools installation program, ensure that all the previous versions of Microsoft Windows support tools are removed from your computer including the beta versions. If your computer has an older version of a support tool, you can instruct the installation program to automatically uninstall it or choose to uninstall it manually.

  1. Download and extract the contents of the Active Directory Support Tools package.

  2. Browse to the folder containing the suptools.msi program.

  3. Run suptools.msi as an administrator.

  4. In the Wizard that appears, do not change the default settings and complete the installation.

The wizard places the support tools including the Movetree utility in the C:\Program Files\Support Tools folder and creates an entry in the Windows registry.

It generally comes under this package - Active Directory Support Tools installation package.

Have you tried to install and extract as per the documentation

The document takes to the microsoft support website and I have searched for this package in the support tools and was not able to find it. The only reference I found was how to install it, however that is for Windows XP. The newer version of AD Management is using RSAT and not the support tools which does not include movetree and put it in the Supports Folder which the ADSI connector is looking for.
