Description

The Remove-GPO cmdlet removes the Group Policy Object (GPO) container and data from the directory service and the system volume folder (SysVol).

Examples

Example 1: Remove a GPO by GUID

Remove-GPO -Guid 50cc3e45-0b14-46dd-8b4d-afa012bc331c -Domain "contoso.com" -KeepLinks

This command removes the GPO that has the GUID 50cc3e45-0b14-46dd-8b4d-afa012bc331c from the contoso.com domain. Because the KeepLinks parameter is specified, links between the GPO and all sites, and links between the GPO and all containers in the domain are preserved.

Example 2: Remove a GPO by name

Remove-GPO -Name "TestGPO"

This command removes the GPO named TestGPO from the domain of the user that is running the session. Because the KeepLinks parameter is not specified, links between the GPO and all sites, and links between the GPO and all containers in the domain are removed.

Parameters

-Confirm

Prompts you for confirmation before running the cmdlet.

-Domain

Specifies the domain in which you want to remove a GPO. You must specify the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the domain.

If you do not specify the Domain parameter, the domain of the computer that you are logged on to is used.

If you specify a domain that differs from the domain of your user object, a trust must exist between the domain from which you want to remove the GPO and the domain of your user object.

Type:String
Aliases:DomainName
Position:Named
Default value:None
Required:False
Accept pipeline input:True
Accept wildcard characters:False

-Guid

Specifies the GPO to remove by its globally unique identifier (GUID). The GUID uniquely identifies the GPO.

You can also refer to the Guid parameter by its built-in alias, Id. For more information, see about_Aliases.

Type:Guid

-Name

Specifies the GPO that this cmdlet removes by its display name.

The display name is not guaranteed to be unique in the domain. If another GPO with the same display name exists in the domain an error occurs. You can use the Guid parameter to uniquely identify a GPO.

If you do not specify the name by using the Server parameter, the primary domain controller (PDC) emulator is contacted.

You can also refer to the Server parameter by its built-in alias, DC. For more information, see about_Aliases.

Notes

  • When you remove a GPO, by default, all links to that GPO in the domain of the GPO are deleted. To remove a link to a GPO, you must have permission to link Group Policy Objects for the organizational unit or domain. If you do not have rights to delete a link, the GPO is deleted, but the link remains. Links from other domains and sites are not removed. The link to a deleted GPO appears in the GPMC as Not Found. To remove Not Found links, you must either have permission on the site, domain, or organizational unit containing the link, or ask someone with sufficient rights to delete it.
