I've read many articles about using wevutil.exe and it seems to be exactly what I need. However, I cannot find it. I've tried on a Windows 2003 server, Windows 2008 server, Windows 7, etc. All come back with "'wevutil' is not recognized as an internal or external command". TechNet (which has docs on using it) doesn't list a download point so I assume it is provided with Windows?

I think you just misspelled, it's actually WevtUtil, and is located in C:\Windows\System32.

I would like to automate running a custom batch file when a user logins to Windows 8? Is it possible?
Thanks,

Yes, using the Task Scheduler. Here's a resource I found by Googling this (It also applies to Windows 8, though of course the interface is different): http://www.thewindowsclub.com/how-to-schedule-batch-file-run-automatically-windows-7

Hi im looking for a solaris simulating windows terminal to execute some environment specific scripts i have. Any help?
I don't believe anything like that exists. Your best option is probably a Solaris VM. You can download one and VirtualBox from Oracle.
Here is a blog entry that discusses use of the VM

On windows XP, I easily replace the corrupted shimgvw.dll with the original so that I could recover the problem of displaying the picture on thumbnail view and opening it with windows fax viewer.
But I can't replace shimgvw.dll on windows 7. I have tried replacing from safe mode with command prompt, but I can't.
Is there any command-line(like sudo of LINUX) to break security so that windows 7 will allows us to replace the file on system32 folder?
Are you programmer?
MoveFileEx
Or you can use
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\FileRenameOperations
registry key.
Or you can use Sysinternals PendMoves

Which Windows 7 file(s) are critical for booting?
In other words, what is the shortest way to irreversibly dismantle a Windows 7 instance via a batch script, assuming we have root privileges?
I googled a bit, but I found ambiguous information.
*I'm asking this out of curiousity - not to do evil deeds.
The thing about booting files is that all of them can easily be restored. If you want to irreveribly degrade Windows about the only thing you can do is destroy the registry files. See this link for the location of the registry archives.

I found that taking any exe file, renaming it to program (without extension) and putting it in C:\ root folder might cause strange things in windows like showing this application when other programs start.
What is it? is it some kind of backdoor?
p.s if you restart windows after doing so - you get a warning about it.
thanks,
Adi Barda
Maybe the fact that some programs don't know how to access C:/Program Files/. because it has a space. Then they are trying to execute C:/program, which in your case turns out to be the file you created.
