Can I use a script to preform windows tasks?
Essentially, this is what I would like to do:
start a script (like java) to run a command line program. Once the file opens in windows, it will prompt me for a password in a windows dialogue box that pops up. Then I have two chances to enter a numeric password from 0-10000.
After two chances, the program makes you reopen the file.
So I would like to write a script to automate this, so I do not have to do it by hand. How can I inteface the script so that it will enter a numeric value into the windows dialogue box? I think I can handle the rest of the scripting, I am just new to this interfacing part.
If you need to know, this is for a set of recovery disks that are factory password protected, but due to some issues with a possible corrupt file, and me being to cheap to go to my "authorized Toshiba dealer" for $65.00 an hour, I figure I would try to crack the password.
Other people have tried recompiling the preboot.bat file to fix the corruption, but I figure my approach may be easier for me.
Thank you,
Joe
