# ntdsextract2
This aims to be a replacement of <https://github.com/csababarta/ntdsxtract/> by @csababarta.
## Why do you write a tool that's already there and working?
1. ntdsxtract is using Python 2.7, which makes it hard to use on modern systems
1. There has been no change since a lot of time (the last commit is from February 2016), which suggests that Csaba has other stuff to do at the moment. That's OK. But Windows *is* changing, and therefore the tools to analyze Windows Systems has to adapt. As I don't like some architectural decisions Csaba has made, I started my own development.
