![]() ![]() Or, let’s say a co-worker/friend/family member asks for help with accessing, repairing, or recovering a PC, but they’ve lost the needed account information. Here are some examples: Say you’re faced with accessing a PC that boots, but whose badly scrambled sign ins make it impossible to access all local user accounts. (Any competent hacker already knows about this trick.) Yes, this hack has the potential for misuse - I’ll come back to this later - but it’s also a powerful, last-ditch method that can be used legitimately to repair, recover, or restore systems that are beyond the reach of normal rescue methods. It involves a new way to take advantage of an ancient security vulnerability (dating to Windows 95!) that lets you trick the OS into opening a system-level command environment. This unofficial hack can give you full administrator access to Windows, even if a PC’s accounts and passwords are mangled, unknown, or blocked. mostly.INSIDER TRICKS, TOP STORY How to hack a 'back door' into Win10, 8, and 7 Yes, I know the installer is not good code ok. (this is to get around having to put in security questions and toggle off all the 'privacy' options) The modified LTSC 2019 image skips directly to the Administrator desktop with a helpful script that allows you to specify and username and password for you account, then logs out and disables the built in Admin account. (and gives you the option to add programs to it but from my experience it takes significantly longer if you add anything for some reason.) This is just here if you wanted to make an image that skips all the OOBE. Unattend.xml (place this in C:\Windows\System32\Sysprep\) (You might also need this link to the Windows ADK) I can't provide download links for the LTSC 2019 ISO but I can link you the script I used for first user setup, my unattend XML file and this Craft Computing video that explains mostly everything you need to do to make it. Sorry about that, it's because the theme needs to be re-applied in order to fix a weird issue where some elements revert to white with white text or black with black text. Manually open that same xWin.theme file and change the below line to a new value: The way to edit it is to either save the theme and copy that theme from:Īnd rename it to 'xWin.theme' (replace the theme that's already in there) If the theme doesn't properly apply properly, just select it from the themes menuĪlso, another note related to themes, you CAN NOT change the colour the normal way, it will revert every time you unlock your machine. It is recommended to Activate Windows PRIOR to running the installer as it has problems with themes because of the restrictions on customizing your pc before activation. Removed the ability to print script files from the context menu (because Who the fuck prints bat files) Modified list of new files in context menu (removed contact & rtf, added bat, vbs, and png)Īdded option to open CMD here (and here as Admin) in context menuĪdded options to Reload Theme & Restart Explorer in desktop context menu ![]() ![]() Replaced default text editor with Notepad++ĭisabled Action Center, People, and taskview Icon on Taskbar Removed Quick Access and 3D Objects FolderĮnabled Hidden Files & File Extensions by default Soft of these have custom user data or settings that should be handled by the installer.Ĭustom System-Wide Dark theme (based on xTheme by niivu) with script to fix issues on system unlock. Shutup10 by O&O Software (not actually installed, just ran once.) Open-Shell (fork of Classic Shell by Ivo Beltchev) OldNewExplorer by Tihiy (I don't think they have a webpage to link to so here's the page I downloaded it from) (that being said, I didn't compile the bat scripts so if you want to look at the code it's all there.) I wouldn't run this under your current install as there's a chance it will break things. The Installer is completely separate and can run on any install of LTSC 2019 (haven't tested other versions and because it's messing with custom themes I wouldn't be surprised if it has issues on newer versions) So, I've been messing around with customizing Windows Installs lately and finally somewhat finished making both a cut down version of LTSC 2019 which skips the OOBE as well as an installer for a bunch of software and tweaks to improve the experience. ![]()
