Group membership remains on deleted user accounts in the Recycle Bin.

cause
This happens when the Primary Group Membership of the user account has been changed from the default Domain Users to another Global Security Group.

fix

As long as the deleted user account remains in the Recycle Bin, it will still appear to have the group membership in Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) and in Active Directory.

In order for the group membership to be removed from view, the user account will need to be permanently deleted from the Recycle Bin container.
