title: Read encrypted connection string in Machine.config from Powershell
body: <p>Is it possible to read the encrypted connection string in Machine.config from Powershell script? </p>
  
  <p>Due to security reason, we are trying to move the hardcoded connection string from PowerShell script to Machine.config </p>
  
  <p>Update: Powershell script is supposed to read the connection string from Machine.config (Encrypted through aspnet_regiis) and connect to the DB. </p>
