====== Command Prompt ======

===== MD5/SHA256 Hash =====
  certUtil -hashfile FILENAME [SHA256|MD5]


===== cmd.exe =====
Apparently cmd.exe no longer has a default startup script.  [[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4294853/starting-cmd-exe-problem|According to Stackoverflow]] you have to configure it in the registry.  Add a string value named AutoRun to one of these keys and set the value to the full path of the startup script.

//Yes, I should probably learn Powershell but I have enough shit to learn and powershell uses insanely long hyphenated commands.  I know you can tab complete but still, WTF?   Also, after being Windows-free and generally Microsoft free for five years and coming back, I've realized that Microsoft makes shit. The issue is largely the UI.  I **like** having a lot of options but the MS UIs are sooo freaking busy that I can never find anything.//


==== Dir Sort Order ====
From CLI use /o:GN.  Make it permanent with ''setx DIRCMD "/o:gn"'' or otherwise adding an environment variable like ''set DIRCMD="o:gn"'', perhaps in that startup script I mentioned above.

==== Home Folder ====
''echo %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%'' will echo your home drive and folder.

===== Network Info =====
''netsh'' is a PITA with it's long, mutli-level syntax but it gives better answers than ''ipconfig'' for a lot of things.

This will give you a cutdown version of ipconfig.

  ipconfig /all | findstr "IPv4 adapter Physical Server Name"

==== ip info ====
  * ''netsh interface ip show config''
  * You can also get a specific connection with:
    * ''netsh interface ip show config "Connection Name"''
  * Filtered ipconfig version to show Connection Name, MAC and IP 
    * ''ipconfig /all | findstr "adapter Physical IPv4"''

==== WLAN BSSID ====
  * ''netsh wlan show interfaces''
  * ''netsh wlan show networks mod=bssid''

==== Routing table ====
  * ''netsh interface ip show route''
  * ''route print -4''

==== MAC ====
  * ''netsh lan show interfaces''
    * If it tells you "The Wired AutoConfig Service (dot3svc) is not running." you can start it with ''net start dot3svc'' and then stop it with ''net stop dot3svc''.
  * ''getmac /V | findstr /V disconnected''
  * Powershell
    * ''Get-CimInstance win32_networkadapterconfiguration | select description, macaddress | where {$_.MACAddress -ne $null }''
  * For a remote Windows computer:
    * ''nbtstat -a 10.11.12.13''

==== For Loop Ping Sweep ====
From: https://www.rubyguides.com/2012/02/cli-ninja-ping-sweep/
<code>
 for /L %i in (1,1,255) do @ping -n 1 -w 200 192.168.1.%i > nul && echo 192.168.1.%i is up.
</code>
As you can see the idea is the same, -n being the equivalent of -c in Linux’s ping and -w is the timeout, then we send the output to nul and echo only if the ping command was successful (that’s what the && is for)

===== User Info =====
  * ''whoami /groups'' shows what AD groups the current user is in.


===== Reload in 5 =====
  # reboot windows in 5 minutes
  shutdown /r /t 300

  # abort shutdown
  shutdown /a

===== To change the Windows PATH =====
  setx PATH "path with quotes if there are spaces (there are)"

===== Line count (like wc -l) =====
