Simulate "ok" via command line

Question

I have a Windows prompt command that disables proxy settings:

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\" /v ProxyEnable /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

My system browsers are configured to use my system settings. The command works, but not in real time - the effects only happen when I go to the Windows menu of the proxy setting and click on "ok" there.

How do I simulate this "ok" via prompt?

:: I believe you can make use of the sendKey (in VBS), to make some keystrokes shortcut, as Tabs, Arrows, Etc... needed to arrive at the button OK and then send the ENTER, that will function as a Click!!

@echo off & setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

>"%temp%\_temp_file_4vbs_.vbs"^
    (
     echo/ Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject^("WScript.Shell"^)
     echo/ Set objShell = WScript.CreateObject^("WScript.Shell"^)
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 1500
     echo/ objShell.AppActivate "inetcpl.cpl"
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 100
     echo/ WshShell.SendKeys "({UP})"
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 1500
     echo/ WshShell.SendKeys "(+{TAB})"
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 1500
     echo/ WshShell.SendKeys "(+{UP})"
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 1500
     echo/ WshShell.SendKeys "({TAB})"
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 1500
     echo/ WshShell.SendKeys "({TAB})"
     echo/ Wscript.Sleep 2000
     echo/ WshShell.SendKeys "({ENTER})"
    ) & set "_temp_vbs=%temp%\_temp_file_4vbs_.vbs" 

start "" /w "%Windir%\System32\inetcpl.cpl" 
start "" /w "%Windir%\System32\wScript.exe" //nologo "!_temp_vbs!"
del /q /f "!_temp_vbs!" & goto :eof

Obs.: To open the tab directly "connections" via cmd/bat, use the command below:

start "" /w rundll32.exe Shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL Inetcpl.cpl,,4

Answer 2

That’s not possible, and for good reason.

Imagine if it were possible to simulate mouse clicks by the user. Just imagine, for a moment.

Now imagine a malware that does this.

Now imagine that so you could:

• Disable Firewall and Windows Defender;
• Disable anti-virus;
• Send items to the trash;
• Empty the trash can;
• Dislocate the user;
• Turn off the machine;
• With a little imagination, you could have a service that observes what processes the user opens. Wait for him to open a browser, log into an internet banking site with known layout... Simulate a fake screen, send the browser window there, and transfer the user’s money to a temporary account of you.

For these reasons, much that deals with machine security requires at least a user confirmation. Sometimes they ask for an involvement that goes beyond that.

In time: you are some nineteen years behind in the concept of that your virus. The Cult of the Dead Cow invented the Back Orifice to do things like what you want. Fortunately and for the good of humanity, this is no longer so easy to do since some versions of Windows ago.

You can try creating a proxy.reg file:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"ProxyEnable"=dword:00000001
"ProxyServer"="http://<proxyEndereco>:<porta>"

If you want to run in a bat enough:

regedit /s "c:\caminho\proxy.reg"

Or make a bat to change directly on the record:

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /v ProxyEnable /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /v ProxyServer /t REG_SZ /d <proxyEndereco>:<porta> /f

You are only changing Proxyenable

Reset Network Settings:

NETSH INT IP RESET all
netsh winsock reset all
ipconfig /release 
Ipconfig /flushdns
