My school blocked DOS!

[Whitecrow]

How do I get into DOS at my school? When I try and open it up it says The Adminstrator has disabled this function and to click any key to exit. Now I remever Syntax gave me the code..

"REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\System]
"DisableCMD"=dword:0"

That USE to work last year, but this year the techs have gotten smarter, and now it doesnt work, an error pops up when you dbl click the file.

Anyone have other ideas?

You could try putting all your commands you want to use in a batch file, I don't know how restrictive their blocking of command prompt is, so that might work. If you just put each command on a new separate line in a text file and save it as .bat, then it will run with the same effect as typing them in to command prompt.

The error you get is probably an access denied error because of your privledges. Any decent admin would block regular accounts from having access to the registry, command prompt, all users startup folder, etc... Maybe a lightbulb finally went off in his head. What is your purpose of using the command prompt? If you need access to the hard drive, boot from a knopix disk and manually change the registry. If the computer admin raises a fuss just tell him "Respect My Authority!".

lol, dunno I've always just kinda of wondered how to get in DOS, but there no urgent need.

Also my school logs everysingle stroke and website we go to, but I dont think the admins go through each and evyones account to see what they are doing, I mean we have 4500 students..

Its funny, alot of these questions I have some sort of tutorial on www.informationleak.com about it.

Anyways, here are a few ways to get around the command prompt being blocked:

http://www.informationleak.net/bypass.txt
http://www.informationleak.net/bypass.doc

Sorry Im replying so late in the thread.

For those too lazy to click:

Method *:
*. Open any folder or browser.
2. Type the location of cmd.exe or the prompt depending on the OS.
Example: "C:\windows\system*2\cmd.exe" or "C:\winnt\system*2
\cmd.exe" (for NT)
*****************************************
Method 2:
*. Save the cmd.exe prog to a floppy and do a "A:/cmd.exe".
2. If you dont want to run it off the A:, then save it to the
computer and launch it from somewhere you have access to.

(note: ctrl-c / ctrl-v if cut and copy is blocked.)
****************************************
Method *:
*. Download QuickBASIC. http://www.geocities.com/aliphax/files/qb.zip
2. Make a program that works similar to cmd.exe, but isn't blocked.

SHELL "cd>~cd.tmp"
OPEN "~cd.tmp" FOR INPUT AS #*
LINE INPUT #*, f$
CLOSE #*
KILL "~cd.tmp"
f$ = f$ + "\~cd.tmp"
DO
SHELL "cd>" + f$
OPEN f$ FOR INPUT AS #*
LINE INPUT #*, cd$
CLOSE #*
KILL f$
PRINT cd$ + ">";
LINE INPUT cmd$
SHELL cmd$
LOOP UNTIL LCASE$(cmd$) = "exit"

*. Save as "something.bas"
4. Click Run
5. Make EXE File
6. Stand-Alone EXE File
7. Make EXE
8. Exit
*. Execute "something.exe"
***************************************
Method 4:

*. If you have access to office, start word
2. Run the vb-runtime option
*. Add an command button and do an on-click sub which says:
Shell "cmd"
4. Run it
***************************************************
Method 5:

Simply open up the browser, go to view source, select New,
type "command", and save it as dos.bat. Then just simply open up
dos.bat to open up command prompt.

hi people, im new, i saw this and thought id give a helping hand:

here goes...
open notepad and put this in:



[Version]

Signature=“$CHICAGO$”

[DefaultInstall]

DelReg=del

[del]

HKCU,Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\

System,Disableregistrytools,

*,00,00,00,00

and save it as (put name here).inf

right click on it, and click install
it should show a full start menu with "Run" etc. go start>run> regedit, and find the entry (sshould be named DisableCMD i think) and change the dword to 0 , or just delete it!

i did this at my school with novell... IT ppl there suck
