Are there any special considerations?
To use the Windows PowerShell Group Policy cmdlets, you must be running either Windows Server 2008 R2 on a domain controller or on a member server that has the GPMC installed, or Windows 7 with Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) installed. RSAT includes the GPMC and its cmdlets.
You must also use the Import-Module grouppolicy command to import the Group Policy module before you use the cmdlets at the beginning of every script that uses them and at the beginning of every Windows PowerShell session.
You can use the GPRegistryValue cmdlets to change registry-based policy settings and the GPPrefRegistryValue cmdlets to change registry preference items. For information about the registry keys that are associated with registry-based policy settings, see the Group Policy Settings Reference. This reference is a downloadable spreadsheet.
Note
For more information about the Group Policy cmdlets, you can use the Get-Help and Get-Help-detailed cmdlets to display basic and detailed Help.
