gpresult.exe is a command-line tool built into Windows that can be used for displaying Group Policy settings and RSoP for a specified user or a computer. Two new command-line switches were added to gpresult beginning with Windows Vista SP1 and Windows Server 2008 that I will explain them in this article:

  • gpresult /x filename.xml
  • gpresult /h filename.html

Common switches that you can use for gpresult command are as follow:

gpresult


Shows the help file, if no switches are included. At least one switch needs to be provided to actually see Group Policy results. Look at the following figure:



-OR-




gpresult /r


Displays Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) summary data. The summary data doesn’t include the settings that have been applied to the user or computer.

Note: RSoP reports Group Policy settings that are applied to a user or computer.




gpresult /x filename.xml


Saves the report in XML format at the location and with the filename specified by the "filename.xml" parameter. You can then open the file in Internet Explorer.






gpresult /h filename.html/filename.htm


Saves the report in HTML format at the location and with the filename specified by the "filename.html" or "filename.htm" parameter. You can then open the file in Internet Explorer.



-OR-



The result:






gpresult /f


Forces gpresult to overwrite an existing file. This is used with the /x or /h command.

Note that, if you do not include this switch and if the destination target has a file with the same name as the name when you specify /x or /h switches, the following error message will be showed:



Now the same scenario, but this one with the use of /f switch. Look at the following figure:




gpresult /v


Returns results in verbose mode. This provides additional details on Group Policy settings.


gpresult /z


Specifies that super-verbose mode is used. This provides significantly more details on Group Policy settings than verbose mode.


gpresult /s computername




gpresult /u {user | domain\user}




gpresult /u {user | domain\user} /p password




gpresult /scope {user | computer}


Retrieves only the user or only the computer settings with the /scope switch. This option can only be used when also using one of the following switches: /x, /h, /r, /v, or /z. Look at the following examples:



-AND-
