Another option is to perform an LDAP search on the
cn=policies, cn=system container for GPC objects, and on each GPC object, look
for a versionNumber attribute == 0. Its probably slightly faster than first
generating the HTML report and then parsing it.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Locating empty GPOs in a domain / forest
Does anyone have a script or know of a process which can be used to locate empty GPOs? i.e. GPOs which have no settings enabled or set.
The customer has hundreds of GPOs so viewing them one by one using GPMC is not a viable option :/
Many thanks,
neil
