Step 1: Launch Any OS That Allow Full Access to the Windows Folders

In this case, I am going to be using Kali. Although you can use many different linux distros or even a windows disk/usb, as long as you can access the terminal/command prompt your good.

Step 3: Rename osk.exe to osk.exe.old

oks.exe is the name of the ease of access ‘On screen keyboard’ file. Rename this using whatever your systems rename command is, in Kali the command would be: mv osk.exe osk.exe.old

Step 4: Rename cmd.exe to osk.exe

Now I’m sure you see how this works, but ill explain it anyways. Basically, when you press ‘on screen keyboard’ in the ease of access terminal, Windows launched osk.exe, which normally is the on screen keyboard application. But we changed it to launch cmd instead. Like magic.

Command: <system rename command> cmd.exe osk.exe
Kali: mv cmd.exe osk.exe

Step 5: Launch Windows and Select ‘on Screen Keyboard’ in Ease of Access Menu

I found this picture off of the interwebs, but what you normally see should be something like this. After going through all the steps above, you should instead see a command prompt.
