Fake Windows Update

This example opens a fake Windows Update screen on the target computer. It’s a harmless prank that can confuse users into thinking their system is updating.

This script will only work on a windows computer with internet access.

  • LOCALE US sets the keyboard layout to US English. Adjust this command if your target system uses a different layout.
  • GUI r opens the Run dialog on Windows (Win + R).
  • STRING https://fakeupdate.net/win10ue/ types the URL for the fake update page.
  • ENTER presses Enter to launch the URL in the default web browser.
  • F11 switches the browser to full-screen mode. (Press F11 again to exit full-screen.)
