Command Line Utility

The Insight Command Line utility (inc.exe) is a program that allow users to execute specific tasks by typing commands, giving network administrators increased flexibility in managing Insight Student computers.

To execute command line instructions with administrative privileges, launch the Command Prompt as an Administrator.

After the command lines are executed (except for commands /getConfig and /help), the computer will restart automatically for the changes to take effect.

Passwords or values containing a space must be enclosed in quotes.

For example: /adminPwd "Mozambique 123"
