How to &[b]#34[/b];hack&[b]#34[/b]; the local Administrator Account on your School Computer - XboxJtag - Aug 10, 2013

I see a lot of tutorials pop up on HackForums about how to hack by using a .bat file, and I find a lot of them pointless. Here's how I gained access to a local Administrator account, so I could install software and run an unblocked version of Command Prompt.


WHAT YOU CAN DO:
* You can install new software, including RATs.
* You can add new users to the PC and add them to permission groups (run > control userpasswords2)
* You can use proxies to bypass your school's (if you couldn't already)
* You can show off to your friends.

WHAT YOU CAN'T DO:
* You can't Change any Network Accounts (usually)
* You can't Change any Locked Network Files (usually)
* You can't Change the network setup (usually)

  1. Download and Install Ubuntu 12.04 to a Flash Drive

  2. Once you have your flash drive, go to school.

  3. Shut down the computer completely at school.

  4. Plug the flash drive in

  5. Turn the computer on, and look for a Boot Menu key option, usually ESC or F10/F12, and then repeatedly tap it.

  6. Choose your flash drive.

  7. When it loads, select "Try Ubuntu"

  8. Open the little folder on the left hand side.

  9. Open your Hard Drive (should be on top of list on folders)

  10. Open the Windows Folder

  11. Open the system32 Folder

  12. Delete "Magnify.exe"

  13. Copy "cmd.exe"

  14. Paste "cmd.exe" as "Magnify.exe"

  15. Shutdown and Reboot the Computer.

  16. When Windows loads again, open the Ease of Access settings (little button in bottom left) and check "Magnify" and then click "Apply" and finally "Cancel"

  17. Type "net user" into the Command Prompt that just popped up.

  18. Find the admin account, usually Administrator

  19. Type "net user administrator *"

  20. Set the new password (WARNING: you can't see yourself type)

  21. Login to that account.

  22. #profit



You can now use an unrestricted Command Prompt window, install malicious software (rats, etc) onto the computer, and so much more.

HOPE THIS HELPS SOMEONE. 🤝

Nice TuT because ofc when you check Magnify your running command prompt as system :).

Thanks for the tutorial going to try this.

This wouldn't work for most schools because I believe most schools have a bios password or a program setup for a string code password before you're allowed to boot from anything. This was the case in my school. It came up with a blue back grounded DOS screen with a key on it and it asked me to enter the password. I had two tries before it kicked me off and restarted the computer, and when I didn't try go to the boot screen directly and just into bios I got a red back grounded screen with the same thing. Two incorrect types and I was kicked off. I have no idea what that program is, or if it was self made. Looks fancy though.

I believe the system repair option with the blue link to open a notepad works best for this. It has the same concept except it isn't blocked by a password and you can rename the things as such. Another thing that didn't work in my school was USB installs because we weren't allowed to install things on a USB and we only had a very limited read privilege to the C drive itself.

Good Tutorial, but like Nishi said, Most schools lock their BIOS add a way to reset it and this will work

* - Tɦɛ Alex - Aug 11, 2013

Most schools have a BIOS password which will prevent you from configuring where to boot from. Unless you open the PC up and take out the BIOS battery then this doesn't work.

Nonono , you are wrong Jackk ! Please take a look on my Bios Password thread :)
