Start-HGPM

Opens the launcher of HGPM: a tile for each graphical console of the module.

The help of the command, as Get-Help Start-HGPM -Full gives it.

Syntax

Start-HGPM [[-Language] <string>] [<CommonParameters>]

Description

A window with a tile for each console of HGPM: Group Policy Management (Show-GPOManagerAvalonia), the fine-grained password policies (Show-PSOManagerAvalonia) and the WMI filter creator (Show-WmiFilterCreatorAvalonia), Policy Analyzer (Show-PolicyAnalyzerAvalonia) and the audit log (Show-AuditLogAvalonia). A click on a tile opens the console with its default parameters, in the language of the launcher, chosen in its list of languages and kept for the next time. Each console runs in a PowerShell process of its own (the same pwsh and HGPM, without the profile): several consoles can be open at once, one that fails does not close the others, and they stay open once the launcher is closed; the tile of an open console is disabled until its window is closed. The theme (Dark mode / Light mode) is kept in the settings of the user, and the open consoles follow it. To give a console parameters (-Server, -Credential, -PolicyDefinitions...), run its command instead. About gives the version of HGPM installed and the folder it runs from, and links to its documentation, its source code and https://hardenad.net/: HGPM is a product of the Hardenad community.

Hosted on Avalonia UI under PowerShell 7+, as Show-GPOManagerAvalonia; the call blocks until the launcher is closed.
