Add Startup and shutdown scripts to Local Group Policy using Powershell
Am I missing something about pushing a PS script via domain GPOAdd Group Policy by ScriptLocal Group Policy not updating. RSOP and GPResult show stale dataUse Script To Edit Local Group Policy Windows Server 2012Getting Group Policy identifier in PowerShellRemotely change local group policy server 2008R2Unable to Set local group policy using powershellHow can I locate Registry key for Group policy settings?Server 2008R2, startup/shutdown powershell scripts in gpedit.msc not working and not appearing in registry. Script works manually. No domain involvedGroup policy batch script not running on startup
I am trying to automate adding startup and shutdown scripts to Local Group Policy (gpedit.msc). One solution is to write to registry directly as pointed out in http://ccm.net/faq/3358-execute-a-script-a-startup-and-shutdown. I'm looking for a way to do it via powershell script using the GroupPolicy module. I want to know if this is possible/anyone has succeeded in doing this?
UPDATE: After reading through msdn articles, I figured out that we can access domain group policy objects but the local group policy object (which contains the startup and shutdown scripts) is stored in registry. I am trying to find a way to access and edit this local GPO through powershell.

Homework question? What's wrong with doing it by registry? What's the actual problem you are trying to solve?

not homework. I am looking to automate it using powershell. It would be deployed with a bunch of other scripts. I'm trying to run an exe with arguments during startup and shutdown. Kindly see edit.

What's wrong with doing it by editing the registry? That's the easy, obvious, low-hanging fruit, and it works. You can script registry editing in powershell you know. "one solution is 'X', but I want to do it a different way that I don;t know how to do..."

If you're trying to do this on a workgroup machines, configure it manually. If they are part of a domain, do it via GPO. All the same options are avail in GPO that are avail in local policy.

Just an opinion so I will keep it short. I prefer always using GPOs as splitting it can lead to confusion later. It might not be possible but it's something I have found to be a best practice.
