A block of code is set as follows:
# Example to check the status of Windows Defender Antivirus
$baselineStatus = $false
$currentStatus = (Get-MpPreference).DisableRealtimeMonitoring
if ($currentStatus -eq $baselineStatus) {
Write-Host "Security baseline is intact."
} else {
Write-Host "Security baseline drift detected. Review settings."
} Bold: Indicates a new term, an important word, or words you see onscreen. For instance, words in menus or dialog boxes appear in bold. Here is an example: “In the Enter Product Key window, type the product key and click OK.”
Any command-line input or output is written as follows:
