When you open command prompt, this is what you see on the title bar.
I found C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe on the title bar of the command prompt
@echo off = hides the command output
del = deletes
C:\windows\system32 = The very core of the Windows OS. Without it windows will not work
.bat file = will run the code as if it was typed into the command prompt
saving as all files = will affect every file in the system32 folder
So yeah... don’t run that on your Windows computer or you’re fucked.
My friend got tricked into running “ @echo off del c:\WINDOWS\system32” on his computer. He’s still pissed.
