I am continuing to update the GPO Backup Script. In the latest release I increased the Performance 3x by combining parts to reduce the duplicate calls to generate the reports. I have now included the ability to use .7z (7 Zip) to compress the back and greatly reduce the backup file size.

The Following Files are generated as part of this Script:

.zip – This contains a backup of all your GPO’s the folder is create with the name for each GPO for easy Recovery or viewing
.7z – This contains a backup of all your GPO’s the folder is create with the name for each GPO for easy Recovery or viewing (New)
