There is one more interesting thing about CMD that not everyone knows. CMD is very respectful of your file shortcut. If you create a shortcut for your batch script and associate it with a custom icon, then the console window launched by this shortcut will take not only the shortcut name in the window header, but also the selected icon. I don't think any other file (like a text file) behaves like this.
You're a godsend, dude. You got me interested in Linux, and after I've had a draining past few months trying to get through a lot of dry information for the A+ (because I tried to focus on the hardware - my biggest weakness - and not the scripting and pentesting/cyber defense aspects that I love), I'd about lost my drive for studying. I've been trying everything and just felt like a burnout loser. I came back and watched two of your videos and, already, I feel my motivation coming back. Your stuff is fast-paced and direct, and it helps my brain to get psyched up so damn much. Thank you!!!
Yeah good luck. The hardware is the easy part. Something I realized is that computers are not a quick learn it all in a few months. It's a field of science. I started self studying for comptia and after 4 months ended up signing up for the harvard free computer science course and EVEN that isnt enough. Now im getting my associates in IT. If you really wanna get into the cyber security you gotta learn computer technician, network technician, and then how to program and code all the different aspects of a computer. So C, Python, HTML, Java, SQL... I mean at least if you want to be serious about it. Dont get into computers racing to the end goal. Because if you try to rush and cram you will drive yourself crazy. It's not about memorizing it's about KNOWING how it works and why and how to interact with it on a mush more understanding level. Alot of the stuff network chuck shows is good for goofing off or having little tips and tricks, but when it comes to being serious about the field alot of these youtube videos dont even come close to cutting it. College or a paid for course is gonna be the way to go. Good luck hope you meet your goal. A career choice takes time. Cyber security is not like the movies where kids just hack shit.to do cyber security you must know computer science because that is the only way you can identify flaws in code and networks and other things like hardware or software exploits. Notice how netowrk chuck ALWAYS puts ads in his videos pointing you towards an IT or networking training company. That's his grind. these youtubers get you interested enough to ask questions and then they hit you with commercial training organizations because thats what they do. Bait and switch. Dont waste time on these videos. They'll leave you with more questions and less answers. Hit up community college or a legit training company. you'll save yourself the mental health and frustration
The use case for F2 is actually pretty handy. If you're running various back to back commands but using alternate properties or changing directories for the command, you can simply revert back to command core and make those alterations by remembering the last character of the command you want to edit for the next line. An extremely basic example of this might be "ipconfig /release F2 r" where you can then complete the command with "renew". F4 can similarly edit the beginning of the command.
to get an Administrator CMD prompt without using the mouse and not changing the settings permanently: 1. Press Windows Key and release it 2. type "CMD" 3. press and hold the and keys while hitting the key This also works for all other commands to run them as Administrator

Every main command can go with /? so we can see all of the sub commands for it. There are also sub programs that go with own commands like "diskpart" for example.

the color command only holds until you restart console. If you want to keep the selected colors permanently, you have to right click the shortcut, properties, and then change the colors through the "colors" tab. This will ensure your colors will stay even after restarting cmd
As someone old enough to have started with the command prompt, those first few F keys were helpful when having to rerun command with changes - different options, corrections, etc.
Here's a really awesome one that you didn't mention - Bookmarking previous commands: Hold down ALT and press any number from 1-4. If you see nothing or it says "Digit argument" then you'll have to use the F keys instead, eg. F1, F2 etc.
For CMD prompt screen background color just right click on command prompt then click open file location right click on command prompt choose properties then colors. Oh i learned this by your open cmd prompt with admin by default. Thanks Chuck.
This was great, i thought this was going to be another typical list of windows shell commands but there was a bunch of commands you never see and even some light scripting involved. I learned a couple of things today. Really appreciate it!!!

@@harishmarenju1484 OP can correct me on this but I think if a hacker gains access to your PC, they would skip all privilege escalation procedures to gain admin and just straight up own your computer.
This is not a problem - it WILL ASK for administrative credentials. Problem is somewhere else - you should NOT be an administrator on your normal work account.
Agreed, better option is to right click start button and select the Command Prompt (Admin) or Powershell (Admin) option to prevent accidently giving privilege's to malware.
@@timk9847i have a powershell executive icon on my Desktop, with administrative privileges. How is that bad? If someone knows the code to open my PC he also will have access to admin console anyway
Defaulting to admin in CMD can be dangerous, especially if you aren't entirely sure what you're doing. In the interest of caution, continue to deliberately launch CMD as admin only when you need it. Plenty of Windows tools can still be used in standard user context.
if you don't want to be admin, don't log in as an admin user. The problem is that often you won't be able to do things or access files, even though your user should have access to it. This odd windows behaviour breaks a lot of stuff.
@@svr5423 I understand what you're saying, but fundamentally, from the perspective of making your attack vectors as small as possible, no one should ever run cmd as admin by default. Actions like that should be a deliberate choice.
@@eroc But that doesn't make any sense. If you don't need to work as an admin, use a user that doesn't have admin rights. Your normal user would not be able to have admin cmd. But you admin user should have admin cmd when he opens one.
You should have added the Cipher decrypt option to command 3, not teach users just to encrypt.. cipher /d is the command to decrypt that very same file.

I have a request, Make a video on cmd that a developer absolutely needs. And instead of fast videos like this. Make it in a way to show how an I actually use these in practical work for troubleshooting
@Frode Torsten (Raven) Yeah that's what I'm saying, because as you mentioned it pretty much puts your system at risk. But it's interesting how you can use Ctrl + Shift + Enter to run something as an admin in the run box, I've been wanting to know how I could do that.
@@pyp2205 just google "windows shortcuts" ... you'll find plenty of those "tricks" that are actually not tricks but common knowledge among it people.. chuck makes u thinks it's magic... but it's not.. it's been in windows for a VERY VERY long time...

Not sure if setting CMD.exe to launch as admin by default is a good idea. Some applications spawn a cmd.exe process to do various things, and it might not need admin privileges. Yet now it's always gonna show a UAC prompt, or that might just not work at all.
Yeah that's what I'm saying, you wouldn't want things to open as administrator by default. In fact for UAC prompts, you would want some form of authentication for administrator privileges depending on your environment.
The weird thing is some bad apps out uninstalled in the temp folders so be careful if you are doing the delete temp, you might not be able to uninstall a program especially if it doesn't let you reinstall over an existing app

CMD 7: the batch file command to get the wifi passwords doesn't work. It's also different from the command that is in the free pdf I downloaded (but that command doesn't work neither).
not sure if it's due to formatting issues, for the variables a and f, they should have double % before them instead of single %. But I have to admit that even though I got the bat file working but none of the password really show up despite the fact that the previous cmd commands all work for my wifi. Hope somebody can get that explained
Try this: @echo off setlocal enabledelayedexpansion for /F "tokens=2 delims=:" %%a in ('netsh wlan show profile ^| findstr /R /C:"All User Profile"') do ( set "profile=%%a" set "profile=!profile:~1!" set wifi_pwd= for /F "tokens=2 delims=:" %%F IN ('netsh wlan show profile "!profile!" key^=clear ^| findstr /R /C:"Key Content"') do ( set "wifi_pwd=%%F" set "wifi_pwd=!wifi_pwd:~1!" ) if defined wifi_pwd ( echo !profile! : !wifi_pwd! ) else ( echo !profile! : No password found ) ) pause
btw, it's way better to have CMD not run as admin by default.. create a .LNK named ACMD (admin-cmd) or whatever you like to name it, and use THAT as always admin... especially if you're in networking/fileshares you're gonna get problems with windows if you do stuff in admin mode, cuz they don't trickle down to the normal usermode... having cmd always as admin starting, is like opening bash with "sudo su" ... i USE that a lot, but, ... my terminal never starts in SU mode by default, you just don't do that.... why would you do that on windows then?
I concur, this seems like a bad idea. For one security, for another there's some stuff you should know what you're messing with before you just type in commands. Purposefully elevating to admin at least gets you in the right mindset. Also wht about non-admin users? Ever have a family member or just anyone else, you'd need to give them admin access or give them your password to use CMD. And I can tell, I've had to tell non-comuter people to enter CMD and run an ipconfig A LOT! So you're the only user on your machine? Well, maybe, but still just seems like a bad idea. And I would still be concerned about security. At the very least I think we can all agree this is not best practice. And for good reason!
i was wondering the same thing, now if a hacker gets into your computer remote access they can run as admin without being logged in as admin. you guys are the pros but thats just my take. maybe im wrong but it would seem like im not.
I don't even know WHY .. but I really just think this one specific youtuber guy is awesome.. (zero homo intentended) lol ... something about him.. he doesn't seem to reflect any type of flaws ... seems like he could tackle anything you'd request. Lotta respect for him!
F2 could be helpful for longer stringed commands or you want to rerun a command with a different action or part of your command didn't work but you know where the error might've been such as "netsh wlan show profile wifi1" but you meant to type "wifi2", press *f2* > 'w' > then you have "netsh wlan show profile "

As someone old enough to have started with the command prompt, those first few F keys were helpful when having to rerun command with changes - different options, corrections, etc.
Here's a really awesome one that you didn't mention - Bookmarking previous commands:
Hold down ALT and press any number from 1-4. If you see nothing or it says "Digit argument" then you'll have to use the F keys instead, eg. F1, F2 etc.

For CMD prompt screen background color just right click on command prompt then click open file location right click on command prompt choose properties then colors. Oh i learned this by your open cmd prompt with admin by default. Thanks Chuck.
Thank you for helping me get started learning cybersecurity
omg .... if u follow chucks lead, you're going to get into trouble very soon.... he gives bad advice in this vid, very bad
This was great, i thought this was going to be another typical list of windows shell commands but there was a bunch of commands you never see and even some light scripting involved.
I learned a couple of things today. Really appreciate it!!!
Can u tell me how to change the username for ex he has the name ( chuck) i want to change that

@@sabinamaria3524 Pay a hacker to do what? teach me bash scripting? Next time Della don't send people pictures on the Internet. If Auden can sneak a backdoor on your attacker's machine, how do you know he doesn't already have one on yours?
You are the man, Chuck! Thanks for sharing. Great tips as always
dude, i was searching for this for ages. done it in highschool, 25 years ago and i forgot about it. and for the last 3 months i was searching for it. copy rar archive to a pic. thanx a lot!
ive only just started my IT journey and this was unbelievably helpfull!
I love all your videos they are all so helpful and fun
i think you should check the subtitles at 8:47 💀💀
As someone in the cyber security field, i would highly advise against setting your command line default as admin. For the love of God, just don’t.
Why?
@@harishmarenju1484 OP can correct me on this but I think if a hacker gains access to your PC, they would skip all privilege escalation procedures to gain admin and just straight up own your computer.
This is not a problem - it WILL ASK for administrative credentials. Problem is somewhere else - you should NOT be an administrator on your normal work account.
Agreed, better option is to right click start button and select the Command Prompt (Admin) or Powershell (Admin) option to prevent accidently giving privilege's to malware.
@@timk9847i have a powershell executive icon on my Desktop, with administrative privileges. How is that bad? If someone knows the code to open my PC he also will have access to admin console anyway
Oh man, I simply love you :) Greetings, an ethical hacker in Denmark :)
Man chuck your the fastest NWK guy around, I have to play your vids at .75 LOL Thanks for the content ,
Defaulting to admin in CMD can be dangerous, especially if you aren't entirely sure what you're doing. In the interest of caution, continue to deliberately launch CMD as admin only when you need it. Plenty of Windows tools can still be used in standard user context.
I was looking to see if someone was going to mention this
Especially if you work in a field where sometimes you just need a public IP
if you don't want to be admin, don't log in as an admin user.
The problem is that often you won't be able to do things or access files, even though your user should have access to it. This odd windows behaviour breaks a lot of stuff.
@@svr5423 I understand what you're saying, but fundamentally, from the perspective of making your attack vectors as small as possible, no one should ever run cmd as admin by default. Actions like that should be a deliberate choice.
@@eroc But that doesn't make any sense.
If you don't need to work as an admin, use a user that doesn't have admin rights.
Your normal user would not be able to have admin cmd. But you admin user should have admin cmd when he opens one.
You should have added the Cipher decrypt option to command 3, not teach users just to encrypt.. cipher /d is the command to decrypt that very same file.
he's not a teacher, he's just showing off .... don't listen to this beard of a person, .... he's giving BAD advice
Still not working
i love how happy u are in all ur videos it makes learning alot more fun
Your are absolutely right we can not recognised the difference between these two photos but we judge them by their size
Please complete the CCNA course sir love from India 🇮🇳
What are you learning CCNA for?
@@bfandi4966 actually I won't be going for the certification just requesting to complete the course because Chuck's explaination was by far the finest I have seen on the whole youtube I tried many youtubers before him professor Messer, bitten tech and many other Indian youtubers no disrespect for them but chuck explains all the concepts as if he is teaching a 8 years old kid and by the way learning networking concepts because I am looking forward into penetration testing
Great contents! I never know these commands exist eventhough I had been using Windows for a long time.
If you (@keenoogodlike) want to msg him Don't message to anyone unknown that way. He didn't revealed that he is real. People nowadays scam that way.
Chuck bro! I am a Software developer with a Mechatronics Engineering background. As I developer I am really interested in Network and Security. I love learning things the way you teach them. I have a request, Make a video on cmd that a developer absolutely needs. And instead of fast videos like this. Make it in a way to show how an I actually use these in practical work for troubleshooting
@Frode Torsten (Raven) Yeah that's what I'm saying, because as you mentioned it pretty much puts your system at risk. But it's interesting how you can use Ctrl + Shift + Enter to run something as an admin in the run box, I've been wanting to know how I could do that.
@@pyp2205 just google "windows shortcuts" ... you'll find plenty of those "tricks" that are actually not tricks but common knowledge among it people.. chuck makes u thinks it's magic... but it's not.. it's been in windows for a VERY VERY long time... (some of his "tricks" are even from the MS-DOS era)
@Frode Torsten (Raven) @NetworkChuck maybe likes to play some baits for dummies xd
I was just searching for things on youtube sometime back to help me in my IT studies and one of the few very best things I've ever come across on youtube is chuck's account, I always feel privilleged being here💯🤞
Ok, I'm working sinds 25 years old inMicrosoft environment IT and I've learned, yet, more than before.
Thank you.
Interresting, very interresting.
Not sure if setting CMD.exe to launch as admin by default is a good idea. Some applications spawn a cmd.exe process to do various things, and it might not need admin privileges. Yet now it's always gonna show a UAC prompt, or that might just not work at all.
Don't worry, just disable UAC it's gonna be fine. 😂
@@buldozzer3456 tech tip; don't do that lmao
just don't use cmd then
Yeah that's what I'm saying, you wouldn't want things to open as administrator by default. In fact for UAC prompts, you would want some form of authentication for administrator privileges depending on your environment.
He didn't change every instance of CMD to be run as administrator, only the shortcut on the start menu.

😂😂😂😂😂😂yes brother
Thank you for creating this great channel. Every day, I learn something new. Really, I appreciate your efforts.
lot of fun on this one, Chuck. Thank u
The weird thing is some bad apps out uninstalled in the temp folders so be careful if you are doing the delete temp, you might not be able to uninstall a program especially if it doesn't let you reinstall over an existing app
Imagine not subscribing to NetworkChuck
I know right
Imagine using Windows
Yeah
I’m thinking about making a similar video but hacking documentary format.
One of the best parts of this video is understanding that powershell and command prompt isn't the same thing, college did not prepare me enough for that lol (my minor is cybersecurity sadly, don't judge, it's not the best program)
Tanx allot NetworkChuck have nice weekend :)

CMD 7: the batch file command to get the wifi passwords doesn't work. It's also different from the command that is in the free pdf I downloaded (but that command doesn't work neither).
not sure if it's due to formatting issues, for the variables a and f, they should have double % before them instead of single %. But I have to admit that even though I got the bat file working but none of the password really show up despite the fact that the previous cmd commands all work for my wifi. Hope somebody can get that explained
Try this: @echo off
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
for /F "tokens=2 delims=:" %%a in ('netsh wlan show profile ^| findstr /R /C:"All User Profile"') do (
set "profile=%%a"
set "profile=!profile:~1!"
set wifi_pwd=
for /F "tokens=2 delims=:" %%F IN ('netsh wlan show profile "!profile!" key^=clear ^| findstr /R /C:"Key Content"') do (
set "wifi_pwd=%%F"
set "wifi_pwd=!wifi_pwd:~1!"
)
if defined wifi_pwd (
echo !profile! : !wifi_pwd!
) else (
echo !profile! : No password found
)
)
pause

Happy to see mind-blowing results on cmd.
amazing video... dont know what aspect is more impressive..the actual content or the quality of the video..keep up the great work!!!!
baldur from god of war with Extra beard
btw, it's way better to have CMD not run as admin by default.. create a .LNK named ACMD (admin-cmd) or whatever you like to name it, and use THAT as always admin... especially if you're in networking/fileshares you're gonna get problems with windows if you do stuff in admin mode, cuz they don't trickle down to the normal usermode... having cmd always as admin starting, is like opening bash with "sudo su" ... i USE that a lot, but, ... my terminal never starts in SU mode by default, you just don't do that.... why would you do that on windows then?
I concur, this seems like a bad idea. For one security, for another there's some stuff you should know what you're messing with before you just type in commands. Purposefully elevating to admin at least gets you in the right mindset. Also wht about non-admin users? Ever have a family member or just anyone else, you'd need to give them admin access or give them your password to use CMD. And I can tell, I've had to tell non-comuter people to enter CMD and run an ipconfig A LOT! So you're the only user on your machine? Well, maybe, but still just seems like a bad idea. And I would still be concerned about security.
At the very least I think we can all agree this is not best practice. And for good reason!
Just press ctrl+shift+enter, it runs as admin.
i was wondering the same thing, now if a hacker gets into your computer remote access they can run as admin without being logged in as admin. you guys are the pros but thats just my take. maybe im wrong but it would seem like im not.
@@TheSpecialist54 you are right there..
@@BoGy1980 on the contrary if someone has remote access can't they just right click on command prompt to run as admin? Like a double edged sword.
Instead of F5 you can also press the up arrow key to cycle through previous commands 👍
serieux t'es un boss, je parle pas bien anglais mais je sais que c'est énorme ce que tu fait ici
I don't even know WHY .. but I really just think this one specific youtuber guy is awesome.. (zero homo intentended) lol ... something about him.. he doesn't seem to reflect any type of flaws ... seems like he could tackle anything you'd request. Lotta respect for him!
F2 could be helpful for longer stringed commands or you want to rerun a command with a different action or part of your command didn't work but you know where the error might've been such as "netsh wlan show profile wifi1" but you meant to type "wifi2", press *f2* > 'w' > then you have "netsh wlan show profile "
In cmd7 he said all the text will be below AND NONE OF THEM WERE!!!
I CAN live without those commands because I can live without Window$.

How should I get robbed just because I don't use Window$? Can you explain? I'm intrigued now...

always happyto check these videos again. Please keep it up and teach us more tricks.
I think that's one of your greatest videos ever
Probs to you my man! 100% the most useful video i have watched the last 11 years of my youtube journey thank you!

Well, that some sick video. Probably the best video showing Windows "hacks" I ever watched.
Love your videos man.I have learned many things thanks to you.
Super, thank you !
I legit love the curl command with the weather info. i didnt know that. thanks.
I'm addicted to you content. Wow
Youre just awsome!!!!!!!!! Bring my man some coffee
This is amazing, i really enjoyed.

This was a great video, Love it!
Chuck. That's fantastic. Thanks.
1:24 can simply be done with properties/hidden so that command does not hide file completely.
You are so amazing at this
I thought I was half decent with using command prompt before watching this… 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
wow you make cmd look so much fun. Thanks for these resources
Great video ❤
