This policy setting determines whether Windows PowerShell scripts are run before non-Windows PowerShell scripts during computer startup and shutdown. By default Windows PowerShell scripts run after non-Windows PowerShell scripts. If you enable this policy setting within each applicable Group Policy Object (GPO) Windows PowerShell scripts are run before non-Windows PowerShell scripts during computer startup and shutdown. For example assume the following scenario: There are three GPOs (GPO A GPO B and GPO C). This policy setting is enabled in GPO A. GPO B and GPO C include the following computer startup scripts:GPO B: B.cmd B.ps1GPO C: C.cmd C.ps1Assume also that there are two computers DesktopIT and DesktopSales. For DesktopIT GPOs A B and C are applied. Therefore the scripts for GPOs B and C run in the following order for DesktopIT:Within GPO B: B.ps1 B.cmdWithin GPO C: C.ps1 C.cmd For DesktopSales GPOs B and C are applied but not GPO A. Therefore the scripts for GPOs B and C run in the following order for DesktopSales:Within GPO B: B.cmd B.ps1Within GPO C: C.cmd C.ps1Note: This policy setting determines the order in which computer startup and shutdown scripts are run within all applicable GPOs. You can override this policy setting for specific script types within a specific GPO by configuring the following policy settings for the GPO: Computer Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Scripts (Startup/Shutdown)\StartupComputer Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Scripts (Startup/Shutdown)\Shutdown
