Is there a command prompt command that would let me get the value of an item in my computer's local group policy?
Yes, you can use the gpresult
command in the Command Prompt to retrieve the value of an item in your computer's local Group Policy. The gpresult
command displays the Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) information, including the applied Group Policy settings.
To specifically retrieve the value of an item in the local Group Policy, you can use the /h
parameter with gpresult
to export the result to an HTML file, and then parse the HTML file to extract the desired information.
Here's an example of how to use gpresult
to get the value of a specific item in the local Group Policy:
Open Command Prompt as an administrator.
Run the following command to export the Group Policy information to an HTML file:
luagpresult /h C:\path\to\output.html
Replace
C:\path\to\output.html
with the desired path and filename for the HTML output file.Open the HTML file in a text editor or use a parsing script to extract the desired value.
Inside the HTML file, you can search for the item you're interested in and extract the corresponding value from the HTML structure.
Please note that the output of gpresult
may contain a large amount of information, so it may be necessary to use additional parsing techniques or tools to extract the specific value you're looking for.
Keep in mind that the gpresult
command retrieves the applied Group Policy settings, which include both local and domain-based policies. If you specifically want to retrieve the value of an item in the local Group Policy, make sure you're running the command on the local computer and not within a domain context.
