WMI Filters: Applying GPOs based on Registry Value

[Matt]

Hi,

We have a requirement to apply a GPO with User config settings to a set of
machiines. We do not want to use Loopback processing for this purpose.

We are therefore planning to use WMI Filters to control the application of
this GPO.

There is a particular registry value that we want to check in order to do
this but I'm not sure of the WQL I need to use. The StdRegProv is in the
root\default namespace and all script examples suggest that there is only one
class which is accessed using the root\default:StdRegProv:

i.e.
Set oReg =
GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!root\default:StdRegProv")

This then provides Methods to access the Registry settings. I cannot see how
I can write a WQL to query this.

Can anyone advise me on how I can translate this into a WQL that can be used
in a WMI Filter within Group Policy?

Many thanks
Matt
