CMD & Hashcat - guapmaster - 11-01-2020

So when I open CMD normally without running as administrator I'm able to find the specified path but it says the app can't run on my pc. I read that running CMD as administrator would most likely fix the problem. The issue is when I run CMD as administrator I get "the system cannot find the path specified."

The file is located in a folder on my desktop it was also all working perfectly fine up until thirty minutes ago running CMD without admin privileges



CMD without running as administrator appears as C:\users\USERNAME

CMD running with privileges appears as C:\WINDOWS\system32



Can someone help me fix this?

you need to CD to hashcat directory to start hashcat.exe.
hashcat do not need admin priv.

So cd desktop/hashcat-6.1.1? because that's what I'm doing

Just run an example command file in the hashcat directory. Does it work?

Every command file is giving me the same "Access is denied"

Does your antivirus or other tool block the execution of hashcat?

Turned my anti virus off, still the same problem. I'm stumped!
