input to the Microsoft-Windows-PowerShell/Operational event log. If you enable this policy setting,
Windows PowerShell will log the processing of commands, script blocks, functions, and scripts -
whether invoked interactively, or through automation.

If you disable this policy setting, logging of PowerShell script input is disabled.

If you enable the Script Block Invocation Logging, PowerShell additionally logs events when
invocation of a command, script block, function, or script starts or stops. Enabling Invocation
Logging generates a high volume of event logs.
