Hello Darren,Excellent, I was hoping someone would suggest a Powershell way to do it--I have been working a fair bit with PS recently. Thanks so much! Your free GPMC cmlets will be fantastic. Jason

Jason- Have you done anything with PowerShell? This is actually fairly trivial using PowerShell with my free GPMC cmdlets (www.sdmsoftware.com/freeware.php), as follows: Install the free GPMC cmdlets and then open the shortcut that gets created by the cmdlets. Create a text file with the first line of "Name" and thesubsequent lines as the names of the unlinked GPOs you want to remove:e.g.gpos.txt: Name My First GPO My Second GPO Marketing GPO Then from Powershell, run the following interactively or from a script: $gpos = import-csv gpos.txt foreach ($gpo in $gpos){remove-sdmgpo $gpo.Name} That's all there is to it!

Hello all,We have a large number of unlinked GPOs in our environment and I plan to delete all the unlinked GPOs. I've used the "FindUnlinkedGPOs.wsf" script that is included with the GPMC scripts to identify all the unlinked GPOs. I'd like to script the deletion of all these unlinked GPOs if possible. Has anyone done this before? Suggestions for someone who doesn't do VBscript?Thank you, Jason *********************** You can unsubscribe from gptalk by sending email to gptalk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the freelists.org Web interface.
