Group Policy Management Console Class Library
The Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) Class Library provides a lattice of .NET classes that can be used to access Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) functionality from .NET code as well as Windows PowerShell scripts and cmdlets. (The Group Policy Cmdlets in PowerShell are implemented using the GPMC Class Library.) Using the GPMC Class Library, you can perform many of the same operations programmatically that can be performed via the GPMC user interface (UI).
