Update GPOs with Newer Version

Posted on March 1, 2017 by Alan

If you use GPOs to enforce baselines, you may find that your enterprise is moving from version 1.1 to version 1.2 of a GPO. Unfortunately for you, version 1.1 linked in a dozen places. Wouldn’t you rather just you search for version 1.1 and replace it with version 1.2? Use Update-GPOLinks.ps1 to do just that. The script not only finds all the original links and updates them to the new version, it also keeps the link order.
