Title
GPOAdmin fails to register scripts that are not located in sysvol\\scripts\ -
Description
When using PowerShell "Select-Register" to register scripts that are not located in "sysvol\\scripts\", the command fails with an error similar to the following:
Select-Register : Could not find file '\\sysvol\\scripts\Test.ps1'.At line:1 char:20+ Get-Unregistered | Select-Register+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Select-Register],FileNotFoundException+ FullyQualifiedErrorId :System.IO.FileNotFoundException,Quest.GPOADmin.PowerShell.Commands.SelectRegisterCommand -
Resolution
GPOADmin will only register scripts which are located in the "Scripts" folder in SYSVOL and not will not register scripts in other folders (including sub-folders of the "Scripts" folder. This is considered expected and it is documented in the GPOAdmin user guide:"NOTE: Only scripts contained in the Scripts folder in SYSVOL can be registered and will be detected by the Watcher Service and reported as non-compliant."
