  • Restore shadow copies from CLI

    For some stupid reason, Microsoft decided to guard the revert function in `vssadmin` on Windows 10. I wrote a generic program to lie to vssadmin and allow the extra functionality that you can download from here: https://github.com/NoMoreFood/WinPriv/releases.

  • Implementing Global Injection and Hooking in Windows
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 19 Apr 2022
    If you need to hook methods in a remote process (and also inject payload), you may also consider the Detours library [1]. It has a straightforward API and its repository contains many interesting samples. One thing I was missing in the library was a function to inject code into a running process. So I wrote takedetour [2] which I use as a template for my other projects. Maybe you will find it useful as well.
