Command
Description
winPEASany.exe
Full scan — system info, privileges, services, scheduled tasks, registry secrets (autologon, etc.), installed software, more.
winPEASany.exe quiet cmd
Quieter output restricted to Windows-specific checks (skip the generic/verbose sections).
winPEASany.exe log=out.txt
Write output to a file as well as the console (useful over a slow/laggy shell).
Tips & Tricks
Output is colour-coded by how interesting a finding is (red/yellow = worth investigating first) — skim for those colours before reading top-to-bottom on a long scan.
Regularly surfaces autologon credentials left in the registry (see HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon) and cleartext passwords sitting in unattended-install files, scheduled task definitions, or PowerShell history — check the “Windows Creds” section specifically rather than reading everything sequentially on a large AD box.
