How to Change Group Policy Settings with PowerShell?

Asked By CuriousCoder42 On

I'm looking for help with creating a PowerShell script to change certain Group Policy configurations. Honestly, I'm a bit lost as I have no experience in this area. I need reliable PowerShell commands for managing GPOs since some commands I found only work for specific modifications. For example, I've used 'net accounts /:' and 'Set-ItemProperty', but I learned from ChatGPT that not all settings are stored directly in the registry; some are in 'databases', which is confusing to me. I've also heard about using 'secedit' with a .inf file, but I'm not familiar with that either. Any examples of commands or explanations regarding these settings and the .inf file would be super helpful! Also, for context, I want to apply all controls from the CIS benchmark for Windows 11 (CIS_Microsoft_Windows_11_Enterprise_Benchmark_v4.0.0).

You might want to look into the Group Policy module for PowerShell, which can help streamline managing GPOs. Setting GPOs directly through PowerShell could be tricky if your PCs aren't on a domain or managed by Intune. Check out the official documentation on Microsoft’s site for that module. Also, if you give a more detailed description of what settings you want to change, someone here could help further!
