Hackoo Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Hi :DTry this [HTA] Computer Management Utility It is basically 25 scripts in 1 and incorporates the following scripts: * Scan PCs in an IP range * Get a full inventory of a PC * Change Computer Description * Change Local Admin Password * Clean Temp Files * Clear Application Event Log * Copy Profile script completely rewritten for VB * Delete old user profiles (older than the number of days specified) This now also deletes user reg files. * View all Startup Items present on the PC and delete any entries as required * Enable / Disable IE Proxy * Enable / Disable RDP * Retrieve Microsoft product Keys * Run Comp Management * List all installed updates / hotfixes on PC in text file * Open any remote share (updated in 3.2) * Ping machine * Run PSExec command * Run Custom command * View all the processes on a PC and kill any as required * Retrieve a list of all System Restore points and optionally create a new one * Shutdown / restart / log off * View profiles on machine * Uninstall software (inc silent uninstalls if available) This will also monitor the uninstall and inform you when it is complete (as of update 3.2) * Interrogate Services - view all services and optionally Start / Stop / Restart / Enable / Disable any as required All of these can be done on any remote machine in your network, and the script will dynamically create your OUs and Root OU so it 'should' work straight out of the box! You are given the option to choose a PC out of all of the machines in your domain and then you can do with them as you wish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haxadecimal Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Personally I have always used Hirens Boot Disk http://www.hirensbootcd.org/ It has really great tools for the IT pro on the go. (didnt mean for that to rhyme) Katana is good too I enjoy the customization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theGANOUSH Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I have found it helpful to use TSTool3. It is a very powerful tool, that can allow you to remotely manage a computer. On occasion, my team noob's each other's desktop with it. You can find it here: http://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/TSTool3-8bb4dc72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MB60893 Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Trinity Rescue Toolkit. Really useful, especially if you put all of these boot CD's on a USB key. See project "USB Multipass" in Hak5 Forums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuk Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I've actually used 'XBOOT' and crafted my own multi-boot ISO with everything you can imagine in it. I have it on USB and it also has 'Pstart' on it with a couple hundred portable apps so I can use it within' a Windows environment as well :) I never leave home without it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
