# Policy CSP - WindowsPowerShell
> [!TIP]
> This CSP contains ADMX-backed policies which require a special SyncML format to enable or disable. You must specify the data type in the SyncML as &lt;Format&gt;chr&lt;/Format&gt;. For details, see [Understanding ADMX-backed policies](./understanding-admx-backed-policies.md).
>
> The payload of the SyncML must be XML-encoded; for this XML encoding, there are a variety of online encoders that you can use. To avoid encoding the payload, you can use CDATA if your MDM supports it. For more information, see [CDATA Sections](http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#sec-cdata-sect).

This policy setting enables logging of all PowerShell script input to the Microsoft-Windows-PowerShell/Operational event log.
- If you enable this policy setting,
Windows PowerShell will log the processing of commands, script blocks, functions, and scripts - whether invoked interactively, or through automation.
- If you disable this policy setting, logging of PowerShell script input is disabled.
If you enable the Script Block Invocation Logging, PowerShell additionally logs events when invocation of a command, script block, function, or script
starts or stops. Enabling Invocation Logging generates a high volume of event logs.
> [!NOTE]
> This policy setting exists under both Computer Configuration and User Configuration in the Group Policy Editor. The Computer Configuration policy setting takes precedence over the User Configuration policy setting.
