Get-MpPreference

Get-MpPreference

SYNOPSIS

Gets preferences for the Windows Defender scans and updates.

SYNTAX

Get-MpPreference [-CimSession <CimSession[]>] [-ThrottleLimit <Int32>] [-AsJob]
[<CommonParameters>]

DESCRIPTION

The Get-MpPreference cmdlet gets preferences for the Windows Defender scans and updates. For more information about the preferences that this cmdlet retrieves, see Windows Defender Preferences Class.

EXAMPLES

Example 1: View the scheduled scan day

PS C:\> $Preferences = Get-MpPreference
PS C:\> $Preferences.ScanScheduleDay

The first command gets the preferences, and then stores them in the $Preferences variable.

The second command uses standard dot syntax to display the ScanScheduleDay property of the object stored in the $Preferences variable.

PARAMETERS

-AsJob

Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.

The cmdlet immediately returns an object that represents the job and then displays the command prompt. You can continue to work in the session while the job completes. To manage the job, use the *-Job cmdlets. To get the job results, use the Receive-Job cmdlet.

For more information about Windows PowerShell background jobs, see about_Jobs.

Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet.

The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
