Download all GPOs to the computer

Question

Hello everyone;

I want to save all the GPOs in Windows Server 2016 on my computer with their path, name and description.

I want the list of GPOs as I want from microsoft. Or is there a way for me to do this?

Answer 1

Hi Cenk Gevgili,

Yes, you can use the PowerShell cmdlet Get-GPOReport to generate a report of all the GPOs in your domain. This report will include the path, name, and description of each GPO. Here's an example command you can use:

Get-GPOReport -All -ReportType HTML -Path "C:\GPOReport.html"

This command will generate an HTML report of all the GPOs in your domain and save it to the specified path. You can open the report in a web browser to view the list of GPOs.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. But this method gives me a list of GPOs I have applied. What I want is a list of all the GPOs available on the Windows Server GPO page. I have a software project and I need all GPOs for this project.

Best regards

Hi Cenk Gevgili,

I understand that you need a list of all the Group Policy Objects (GPOs) available on the Windows Server GPO page. To get a list of all the GPOs available on the server, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) on the Windows Server.
2. In the left pane, expand the domain for which you want to list the GPOs.
3. Right-click on the Group Policy Objects folder and select "Backup All" from the context menu.
4. In the Backup Group Policy Object Wizard, select a location to save the backup files and click "Next".
5. On the next screen, select "All domain GPOs" and click "Next".
6. Review the summary and click "Finish" to start the backup process.
7. Once the backup process is complete, navigate to the location where you saved the backup files.
8. Open the folder and you will find a list of all the GPOs available on the server.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

Hello,

From there, only the GPOs applied to the domain are backed up. They are not what I want. It does not backup all GPOs found on the server. I am sending a sample image of the file as I want. There is an Excell file of updated GPOs on Microsoft's page. I actually want it like that. The fields I marked in the picture are important for me.

Best regards

Hi Cenk Gevgili,

I understand that you are having issues with backing up all GPOs found on the server. To clarify, the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) only backs up the GPOs that are linked to the domain. If you want to back up all GPOs found on the server, you can use the Backup-GPO PowerShell cmdlet. This cmdlet allows you to back up all GPOs found on the server, including those that are not linked to the domain.

Regarding the Excel file of updated GPOs on Microsoft's page, I would need more information to provide you with accurate assistance. Can you please provide me with the link to the page you are referring to?

Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.
