This is for a PowerShell shutdown script located at C:\WINDOWS\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\Shutdown\seppuku.ps1. Those ending in \Shutdown\0\0 get script values: "Script"="C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\GroupPolicy\\Machine\\Scripts\\Shutdown\\seppuku.ps1" "FileSysPath"="C:\\Windows\\System32\\GroupPolicy\\Machine" Those ending in \Shutdown\0 get policy values: "GPO-ID"="LocalGPO" HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System\Scripts\Shutdown\0.HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\State\Machine\Scripts\Shutdown\0\0.HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\State\Machine\Scripts\Shutdown\0.HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\Scripts\Shutdown\0\0.HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\Scripts\Shutdown\0.I had to create C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\psscripts.ini: ĠCmdLine=C:\WINDOWS\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\Shutdown\seppuku.ps1 Thanks to insight from answer and from this answer to another question, I was able to get it working on Win2016. via PowerShell, DSC, or batch script) to register a GPO shutdown script on a machine not attached to AD without rebooting?

Placing the script and running gpupdate /force (as suggested here) also doesn't cause it to show up in gpedit, though gpupdate did suggest a reboot may be required to apply some changes - that's not an option as a reboot in an ASG may cause instance termination and replacement.

Just placing scripts there does not on its own seem to register them - they don't show up in gpedit.msc.

It looks like the scripts directories are only created when gpedit.msc is first run, and it's unclear if creating them manually is valid.

This places the scripts in C:\WINDOWS\System32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Scripts\Shutdown.
