This code is a Windows command that retrieves the command line used to start a specific process with the Process ID (PID) of 7016, using the WMIC (Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line Tool). Here's a breakdown of what it does:
-
cmd.exe /d /s /c
:cmd.exe
: Starts a new Command Prompt process./d
: Skips executing commands in theAutoRun
registry entry (prevents custom startup scripts in cmd)./s
: Ensures that any double quotation marks in the command are handled correctly./c
: Tellscmd.exe
to execute the command that follows (in this case, thewmic
query), and then terminate.
-
wmic process where processid=7016 get commandline
:wmic
: Runs the Windows Management Instrumentation Command-line Tool.process where processid=7016
: Filters all running processes to find the one with theProcessId
equal to7016
.get commandline
: Retrieves and displays the command line used to start the specified process.
Output:
The result of this command would include the command line string that was used to initiate the process with Process ID 7016
. For example:
CommandLine
C:\Program Files\MyApp\MyApplication.exe --arg1 --arg2
If there's no process with the PID 7016
, the command will likely return an empty result.
