For detailed install instructions or more information please see our blog

Installation (Install Script)

Requirements

• Windows 10 1803, 1809, 1903, 1909, 2004, 20H2, or 21H1

Insider Preview editions of Windows are not supported

• 60 GB Hard Drive
• 2 GB RAM

Recommended

• Windows 10 21H1
• 80+ GB Hard Drive
• 4+ GB RAM
• 2 network adapters

Instructions

Pre-Install Procedures

You MUST disable Windows Defender for a smooth install. The best way to accomplish this is through Group Policy

In Windows versions 1909 and higher, Tamper Protection was added. Tamper Protection must be disabled, otherwise Group Policy settings are ignored.

1. Open Windows Security (type Windows Security in the search box)
2. Virus & threat protection > Virus & threat protection settings > Manage settings
3. Switch Tamper Protection to Off

It is not necessary to change any other setting (Real Time Protection, etc.)

Important. Tamper Protection must be disabled before changing Group Policy settings.

To permanently disable Real Time Protection

1. Open Local Group Policy Editor (type gpedit in the search box)
2. Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Microsoft Defender Antivirus > Real-time Protection
3. Enable Turn off real-time protection
4. Reboot

Make sure to reboot before making the next change

To permanently disable Microsoft Defender:

1. Open Local Group Policy Editor (type gpedit in the search box)
2. Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Microsoft Defender Antivirus
3. Enable Turn off Microsoft Defender Antivirus
4. Reboot

Standard install

1. Create and configure a new Windows Virtual Machine

Ensure VM is updated completely. You may have to check for updates, reboot, and check again until no more remain

2. Take a snapshot of your machine!
3. Download and copy install.ps1 on your newly configured machine.
4. Open PowerShell as an Administrator
5. Unblock the install file by running Unblock-File .\install.ps1
6. Enable script execution by running Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -f
7. Finally, execute the installer script as follows:

• .\install.ps1
• You can also pass your password as an argument: .\install.ps1 -password <password>

The script will set up the Boxstarter environment and proceed to download and install the Commando VM environment. You will be prompted for the administrator password in order to automate host restarts during installation. If you do not have a password set, hitting enter when prompted will also work.

Custom install

Please see our custom profiles for more custom install options or create your own following the instructions below.

1. Download the zip from https://github.com/fireeye/commando-vm into your Downloads folder.
2. Decompress the zip and edit the ${Env:UserProfile}\Downloads\commando-vm-master\commando-vm-master\profile.json file by removing tools or adding tools in the “packages” section. You can add any package listed in our package list or any package from the chocolatey repository.
3. Open an administrative PowerShell window and enable script execution. Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -f
4. Change to the unzipped project directory. cd ${Env:UserProfile}\Downloads\commando-vm-master\commando-vm-master\
5. Unblock the install file by running Unblock-File .\install.ps1
6. Take a snapshot of your machine!
7. Execute the install with the -profile_file argument. .\install.ps1 -profile_file .\profile.json

For more detailed instructions about custom installations, see our blog

Installing a new package

Commando VM uses the Chocolatey Windows package manager. It is easy to install a new package. For example, enter the following command as Administrator to deploy Github Desktop on your system:

cinst github

You can find packages to install from our package list, which hosts more than just pentesting tools, or from the chocolatey repository.

Staying up to date

Type the following command to update all of the packages to the most recent version:
