Applicable for both Audit and Enforced modes. Drivers not EV (Extended Validation) signed cannot run nor can they be allowed in a Supplemental policy. .PARAMETER Deploy Deploys the selected policy type instead of just creating it .PARAMETER SkipVersionCheck Can be used with any parameter to bypass the online version check - only to be used in rare cases #> } # Set PSReadline tab completion to complete menu for easier access to available parameters - Only for the current session Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Key Tab -Function MenuComplete |
