I am currently trying do change up a script so that I can put it into a GPO. The Script itself works but I want to do a "if else" around it.
The Script is found here: https://gist.github.com/exchange12rocks/950aa29f66e6369d2c02fa8583bb3a75
The goal was to check if a registry key exists and if not, create it and set it to 1. So that way the Script only ever runs once.
I did the if else like this:
$isRegKeySet = Get-ItemProperty -Path 'HKLM:\SYSTEM\PRTGScript' -Name hasScriptRun -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Select-Object -ExpandProperty hasScriptRun
If (1 -eq $isRegKeySet) {
exit
} Else { The Script from GitHub }
The Part that creates the Key is this:
Set-Location HKLM:
New-Item -Path .\System -Name PRTGScript
Pop-Location
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\System\PRTGScript" -Name "hasScriptRun" -Value 1
}
I am not sure where to put these two parts so the script will work. I'm not a Powershell pro unfortunately.
My Script is this:
# Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
# For personal use only. Provided AS IS and WITH ALL FAULTS.
# Set-WmiNamespaceSecurity.ps1
# Example: Set-WmiNamespaceSecurity root/cimv2 add steve Enable,RemoteAccess
