Edit Steps

  1. 1
    Open up any word processing program, such as Microsoft Office Word. Notepad is preferable, but often it is blocked. If you can get to Notepad, that makes your job that much easier.
  2. 2
    Type in command.com. Save it as a plain text document. Close your program.
  3. 3
    Open the new plain text document, which will open in Notepad.
  4. 4
    Click save as and save it as command.bat.
  5. 5
    Open your new batch file and the command prompt will open up. Just Google some command prompt commands to get some basic knowledge of it, but with this reasonably restricted program, there is nothing you can't do with a computer.

Edit Tips

  • Some school or library staff will go through the history of web browsers. Open up your history and delete all of your searches and this web page from it so you don't arouse suspicion.
  • If you are trying to hack a library computer, press F1 to open a new page, then press F2 and a bar should appear, if there is stuff in it, backspace it then type a website.
  • A good rule of thumb is do not save shortcuts and your batches, or if you must, do so in a place nobody will find.

Edit Warnings

  • Please don't do anything wrong on the computer. Don't wreck it. School sucks and so do the staff, but their hearts are in the right place. They've at least earned your respect of the incredibly expensive things they buy for your use.
  • Don't get caught, or you could get banned from computers wherever you are.
  • It is important to put command.com instead of cmd.exe! cmd.exe is often restricted also, but command.com is an entirely different thing.
