This is the built-in help made by Microsoft for the command 'Get-GPO', in PowerShell version 5 - as retrieved from

Gets one GPO or all the GPOs in a domain.
Get-GPO [-Guid] <Guid> [[-Domain] <String>] [[-Server] <String>] [-All] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-GPO [[-Domain] <String>] [[-Server] <String>] [-All] [<CommonParameters>]
Get-GPO [-Name] <String> [[-Domain] <String>] [[-Server] <String>] [-All] [<CommonParameters>]
The Get-GPO cmdlet gets one GPO or all the GPOs in a domain. You can specify a GPO by its display name or by its globally unique identifier (GUID) to get a single GPO, or
you can get all the GPOs in the domain by specifying the All parameter.
The Get-GPO cmdlet returns one or more objects that represent the requested GPOs. By default, properties of the requested GPOs are printed to the display; however, you can
also pipe the output of the Get-GPO cmdlet to other Group Policy cmdlets.
