Microsoft NetSecurity reference: Retrieves Hyper-V firewall per-profile settings from the target computer. The syntax and selected example below are adapted from the pinned Windows Server 2025 reference. Module availability, target configuration and delegated permissions determine whether it can run in your environment. Documentation and parameter text: Microsoft, CC BY 4.0; formatting adapted by Cmdlet World. No execution testing is claimed.
Use an account with the target resource permissions documented for Get-NetFirewallHyperVProfile. Modifying administrative cmdlets may require elevation or delegated administration. This catalog does not assert that ordinary users can execute the command.

Parameters
-All
Specifies that all Hyper-V firewall profile settings should be retrieved.
-AsJob
Runs the cmdlet as a background job. Use this parameter to run commands that take a long time to complete.
-CimSession
Runs the cmdlet in a remote session or on a remote computer. Enter a computer name or a session object, such as the output of a New-CimSession or Get-CimSession cmdlet. The default is the current session on the local computer.
-Name
Specifies that only matching Hyper-V firewall profile settings of the indicated Hyper-V firewall VM creator should be retrieved. The format for this value is a GUID enclosed in brackets: '{9E288F02-CE00-4D9E-BE2B-14CE463B0298}'.
-PolicyStore
Targets the policy store from which to retrieve the rules. A policy store is a container for firewall policy. The acceptable values for this parameter are: - PersistentStore: Sometimes called static rules, this store contains the persistent policy for the local computer. This policy is not from GPOs, and has been created manually or programmatically (during application installation) on the computer. Rules created in this store are attached to the ActiveStore and activated on the computer immediately. - ActiveStore: This store contains the currently active policy, which is the sum of all policy stores that apply to the computer. - MDM: This store contains the rules configured via MDM. By default, the PersistentStore is queried.
-Profile
Specifies that only matching Hyper-V firewall profile settings of the indicated profile should be retrieved. Acceptable values are: Any, Domain, Private, Public.
-ThrottleLimit
Specifies the maximum number of concurrent operations that can be established to run the cmdlet. If this parameter is omitted or a value of 0 is entered, Windows PowerShell calculates an optimum throttle limit for the cmdlet based on the number of CIM cmdlets that are running on the computer. The throttle limit applies only to the current cmdlet, not to the session or to the computer.
Prerequisites
Windows with the NetSecurity module and the Windows feature or management tools that provide it. Confirm target connectivity and version compatibility using the linked Microsoft reference.
Security considerations
This is a read-oriented cmdlet; protect any sensitive results and check the documented effects of your selected parameters.
