Rooted finally
PM me if need help!
Rooted. I’m interested to know if anyone did it a different way. I was able to use SB************** in interesting ways but ultimately could only get what I needed with w*****n. I’m interested to know if anyone didn’t use this.
I have rooted the machine but for some reason the root flag isn’t being accepted? Anyone else having similar troubles?

rooted. Root part wasn’t that difficult but the process to get user was. If you don’t understand standard windows services, ur gonna have a hard time (like i did). But getting root feels good at the end.

Congrats on rooting continuously. Probably he might be in lockdown with Laptop & Internet alone.
Just 4 fun.

it’s not actually that continuous. I thought it was a bit strange but it turns out they rooted this box a few hours before posting it, and some of the other boxes were a week ago.

Lol! I didn’t see his HTB profile.
Wow!! This box was intense!! I struggled a lot with the root part but with all of your’s hints and some very useful articles, I was able to make it! Thanks all!
I can try and help if anyone wants any small hints - though I doubt that everything you need is all given in here!
And…rooted! Really had fun with this one! Banged my head against the wall on Compromised for a day or two, so I decided to try blackfield. For foothold and user I think I used exactly the same route/path as everyone else. However for root/system…I really don’t think so: there is a much faster way than those horrible, clunky b****up commands/scripts, that for me at least, just did NOT want to work, no matter how I formatted everything and what prayers I chanted to the HTB Gods — but then I started thinking…wait, with those privs come other, mm…possibilities – so, with a certain PS mo**le one becomes quite powerful…this certain PS script can be found in the wild and lets you do interesting things…modules to make an exact copy of your system…on your system - could that be used for more???
Whew… getting root was tough not gonna lie, really excellent box though
HTB is not accepting the root flag btw lol, big oof
