Group Policy Scripts

Purpose
Operation

Purpose

Add startup, shutdown, logon and logoff scripts (really: arbitrary command lines, which are executed during shutdown, startup, logoff and logon) programmatically, without a Group Policy, using just what’s already installed with Windows®.

Operation

Download the setup script SCRIPTS.INF and save it in an arbitrary directory, then right-click the downloaded file to display its context menu and click Install to run it.

Note: on Windows Vista and newer versions of Windows NT, InfDefaultInstall.exe, the application registered for the Install verb of *.inf files, requests administrative privileges.

Client Registration

Purpose
Background Information
Operation

Purpose

Demonstrate how to add an additional WWW browser, an additional USENET news reader, an additional mail client and an additional calendar with all bells and whistles so that Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT recognise them as fully functional client programs which can be selected by every user as the default program for their associated file types and URL protocols.

Background Information

The MSDN article Default Programs provides background information.

Operation

Download the setup script CLIENTS.INF and save it in an arbitrary directory, then right-click the downloaded file to display its context menu and click Install to run it.

Note: on Windows Vista and newer versions of Windows NT, InfDefaultInstall.exe, the application registered for the Install verb of *.inf files, requests administrative privileges.

Import Library for 32-bit Helper Functions of Microsoft® Visual C Compiler

Purpose

Purpose

For code running on the i386 processor architecture, the Microsoft Visual C compiler generates calls to the (almost) undocumented helper routines _alldiv(), _alldvrm(), _allmul(), _allrem(), _allshl() and _allshr() for signed 64-bit integer arithmetic and shift operations, to _aulldiv(), _aulldvrm(), _aullrem() and _aullshr() for unsigned 64-bit integer arithmetic and shift operations, ... _alloca(), _chkstk() ... _CIacos(), _CIasin(), _CIatan(), _CIatan2(), _CIcos(), _CIcosh(), _CIexp(), _CIfmod(), _CIlog(), _CIlog10(), _CIpow(), _CIsin(), _CIsinh(), _CIsqrt(), _CItan(), _CItanh(), _ftol(), ...

Additionally ... memchr(), memcmp(), memcpy(), memmove(), memset(), ... strcat(), strcat_s(), strchr(), strcmp(), strcpy(), strcpy_s(), strcspn(), strlen(), strncat(), strncat_s(), strncmp(), strncpy(), strncpy_s(), strnlen(), strpbrk(), strrchr(), strspn(), strstr(), strtok_s(), strtol(), strtoul(), ... wcscat(), wcscat_s(), wcschr(), wcscmp(), wcscpy(), wcscpy_s(), wcscspn(), wcslen(), wcsncat(), wcsncat_s(), wcsncmp(), wcsncpy(), wcsncpy_s(), wcsnlen(), wcspbrk(), wcsrchr(), wcsspn(), wcsstr(), wcstol(), wcstoul(), ... available from ... on MSDN. ...

Shipped in the MSVCRT libraries, for static linkage. ...

Exported from NTDLL.dll, ... ...

Caveat: the routines for 64-bit integer arithmetic are but SLOW!

My article Fast(est) 128÷128-bit and 64÷64-bit Integer Division presents division routines that are 4 to 6 times faster and a (branch-free) multiplication routine that is 3 to 9 times faster!

Debug String Monitor

Purpose
Background Information
Implementation and Build Details
Source and Build Instructions

Purpose

Monitor debug strings written from all processes running in the current (user) session with the Win32 function OutputDebugString().

Background Information

In Win32 processes that are run under a debugger, debug strings written with the Win32 function OutputDebugString() are catched and typically displayed by the debugger.

In Win32 processes that are not run under a debugger, the Win32 function OutputDebugString() checks whether the shared memory section DBWIN_BUFFER as well as the events DBWIN_BUFFER_READY and DBWIN_DATA_READY exist; if yes, it waits until the event DBWIN_BUFFER_READY is signaled, writes the process identification and its argument into the shared memory section DBWIN_BUFFER, signals the event DBWIN_DATA_READY and returns to its caller.

Implementation and Build Details

Debug String Monitor is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Note: due to the design and implementation of Windows’ (classic alias legacy) console, the Win32 function WriteConsole() can only write to a console, not to a file nor a pipe, i.e. redirection of standard error or standard output is not supported!

Source and Build Instructions

Perform the following 2 simple steps to build the console application Debug String Monitor from the source presented hereafter.

  1. Create the text file DBWINNER.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

Registry Policy Reader

Purpose
Background Information
Implementation and Build Details
Source, Build Instructions and Sample Output

Purpose

Display the content of Registry Policy files in text format similar to that of Registry Editor script files, and optionally compare their contents against the machines’s or the (current) user’s Registry.

Background Information

Registry Policy files, typically created with the extension .pol, are used either to store the Registry keys and entries (to be) applied by Group Policies as well as Local Security Policies, or to restore the previous contents of Registry keys and entries modified by Group Policies as well as Local Security Policies.

The MSDN article Registry Policy File Format documents their format.

The MSKB article How to add, modify, or delete registry subkeys and values by using a .reg file documents the format of Registry Editor script files, typically created with the extension .reg.

Implementation and Build Details

Registry Policy Reader is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Note: due to the design and implementation of Windows’ (classic alias legacy) console, the Win32 function WriteConsole() can only write to a console, not to a file nor a pipe, i.e. redirection of standard error or standard output is not supported!

Source, Build Instructions and Sample Output

Perform the following 3 simple steps to build the console application Registry Policy Reader from the source presented hereafter and execute it.

  1. Create the text file POLYGLOT.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

Purpose

Print an offline registry hive formatted as .inf file in UTF-16LE encoding on standard output (which must be redirected to a file).

Background Information

Implementation and Build Details

Offline Registry Reader is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Source and Build Instructions

Perform the following 2 simple steps to build the console application Offline Registry Reader from the source presented hereafter.

  1. Create the text file OFFREG.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

Registry INF Dumper

Purpose
Implementation and Build Details
Source, Build Instructions and Sample Output

Purpose

Enumerate all keys and values of one or more predefined Registry branches (HKCC, HKCR, HKCU, HKLM, HKLS, HKPD, HKU) and print them as an .inf file in UTF-16LE encoding on standard output (which must be redirected to a file).

Note: to dump the entire Registry specify the branches HKLM and HKU.

Implementation and Build Details

Registry INF Dumper is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Note: due to the design and implementation of Windows’ (classic alias legacy) console, the Win32 function WriteConsole() can only write to a console, not to a file nor a pipe, i.e. redirection of standard error is not supported!

Source, Build Instructions and Sample Output

Perform the following 3 simple steps to build the console application Registry INF Dumper from the source presented hereafter and execute it.

  1. Create the text file REGISTRY.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

    Note: the output format allows to detect Registry values without data, REG_SZ, REG_EXPAND_SZ and REG_MULTI_SZ values with empty strings, REG_LINK, REG_SZ, REG_EXPAND_SZ and REG_MULTI_SZ values with (invalid) odd size, and REG_DWORD_BIG_ENDIAN, REG_DWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN alias REG_DWORD as well as REG_QWORD_LITTLE_ENDIAN alias REG_QWORD values with sizes not matching their data type.

    Note: with the preprocessor macro SANITY defined, several consistency and sanity checks regarding the size of key and value names as well as value data and value data types are performed.

    Note: with the preprocessor macro SECURITY defined, the security descriptors of enumerated keys are printed in Security Descriptor Definition Language notation.

Security Descriptor Inspector

Purpose
Implementation and Build Details
Source and Build Instructions

Purpose

Find directories and files on NTFS filesystems that have a security descriptor which contains unknown security principals, i.e. user or group accounts that don’t exist on the local machine.

Implementation and Build Details

Security Descriptor Inspector is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Note: due to the design and implementation of Windows’ (classic alias legacy) console, the Win32 function WriteConsole() can only write to a console, not to a file nor a pipe, i.e. redirection of standard error or standard output is not supported!

Source and Build Instructions

Perform the following 2 (plus 2 optional) simple steps to build the console application Security Descriptor Inspector from the source presented hereafter.

  1. Create the text file SECURITY.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

Really Known SIDs Enumerator

Purpose
Background Information
Implementation and Build Details
Source, Build Instructions and Output

Purpose

Enumerate (most of) the Security Identifiers really known on a machine, translate them to their (fully qualified) account name plus type and print these 3 pieces.

Background Information

The TechNet articles What are Security Identifiers?, How Security Identifiers Work and Security Identifiers Technical Overview provide an overview.

Implementation and Build Details

Really Known SIDs Enumerator is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows XP and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.5 and newer versions.

Note: due to the design and implementation of Windows’ (classic alias legacy) console, the Win32 function WriteConsole() can only write to a console, not to a file nor a pipe, i.e. redirection of standard error or standard output is not supported!

Source, Build Instructions and Output

Perform the following 3 simple steps to build the console application Really Known SIDs Enumerator from the source presented hereafter and execute it.

  1. Create the text file SIDEREAL.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

Privilege Twiddler

Purpose
Implementation and Build Details
Source and Build Instructions

Purpose

Enable, disable or remove privileges of the calling process.

Implementation and Build Details

Privilege Twiddler is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Note: due to the design and implementation of Windows’ (classic alias legacy) console, the Win32 function WriteConsole() can only write to a console, not to a file nor a pipe, i.e. redirection of standard error or standard output is not supported!

Source and Build Instructions

Perform the following 2 simple steps to build the console application Privilege Twiddler from the source presented hereafter.

  1. Create the text file TWIDDLER.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:

Base64 Encoder

Purpose
Background Information
Implementation and Build Details
Source and Build Instructions

Purpose

Encode (binary) files for transmission via electronic mail.

Background Information

Base64 encoding is specified in RFC 3548 4648 titled The Base16, Base32, and Base64 Data Encodings.

MIME is specified in RFC 1341 RFCs 1521 and 1522 2045, 2046, 2047, 2048 and 2049, all titled Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME).

Implementation and Build Details

Base64 Encoder is a pure Win32 console application, written in ANSI C, built with the Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2 Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler 2010 SP1 from update 2519277, but without the MSVCRT libraries, for use on Windows 2000 and newer versions of Windows NT as well as Windows PE 1.0 and newer versions.

Note: Base64 Encoder is a so-called filter, it reads from standard input, writes to standard output and prints error messages on standard error.

Source and Build Instructions

Perform the following 2 simple steps to build the console application Base64 Encoder from the source presented hereafter.

  1. Create the text file 64ENCODE.C with the following content in an arbitrary, preferable empty directory:
