Install-PSGPOAdmx¶

Installs the ADMX files of Windows from the package of Microsoft: into a folder, or to create the central store of the domain.

L'aide de la commande, telle que Get-Help Install-PSGPOAdmx -Full la donne (en anglais).

Syntaxe¶

Install-PSGPOAdmx [-UICulture <string[]>] [-AllLanguages] [-Path <string>] [-MsiPath <string>] [-Force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]
Install-PSGPOAdmx -CentralStore [-UICulture <string[]>] [-AllLanguages] [-Directory <GPOToolsDirectory>] [-Server <string>] [-MsiPath <string>] [-Force] [-WhatIf] [-Confirm] [<CommonParameters>]

Description¶

The module does not ship ADMX files: the console reads those of the central store of the domain, of Windows (%windir%\PolicyDefinitions) or of the SYSVOL of a Samba domain controller. This command downloads the package of Microsoft, Administrative Templates (.admx) for Windows 11 (an .msi, from download.microsoft.com), extracts it without installing it (msiexec /a on Windows, msiextract of msitools on Linux and macOS) and installs its .admx files with their .adml files in the languages asked for (-UICulture) or all of them (-AllLanguages, 22 languages). The files are those of Microsoft, under its terms.

The module pins the package (Resources/PolicyDefinitions.json): a download whose size or SHA-256 differs is refused, and so are extracted files that are not those pinned, set by set (the .admx files, each language), before anything is written.

• Without -CentralStore, the files go into -Path, by default next to the module when it can be written to, else into the data folder of the user (PSGPOTools/PolicyDefinitions), where the console and Initialize-PSGPOAdmx find them.
• With -CentralStore, they go into the central store of the domain, SYSVOL\\Policies\PolicyDefinitions on the domain controller the directory comes from (Windows: its share; Linux: smbclient with Kerberos), as an administrator creates it for GPMC: every console of the domain then reads them. The files already there (the ADMX files of other products) are kept, those of the same name replaced.

A computer without internet: download the package on another computer (the page of Microsoft is in the error of a failed download) and give it with -MsiPath; it is checked as a download is.
