PowerShell log

Prev Next

Attackers have been adopting PowerShell quickly in recent years. As such, it is important to provide logging around this powerful tool. A new detailed script-tracing feature lets you enable tracking and analysis of Windows PowerShell scripting use on a system. After you enable detailed script tracing, Windows PowerShell logs all script blocks to the Event Tracing for Windows (ETW) event log, Microsoft-Windows-PowerShell/Operational.
