Hey hey! 

I'd like to use PDQ to change a Local Group Policy in Computer Configuration/Admin Templates/Windows Components/File Explorer/Previous Versions and ENABLE "Prevent restoring previous versions from backup". I don't see a way to export this, but is this possible? many thanks!

  You can set the registry corresponding with the GPO. Something like this below. It would just be a powershell step in PDQ Deploy. They are probably at this location

  HKLM:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows

  Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\<Path to Policy Registry key> -Name <name of key> -Value <value of key> -Force
