How to Open a Command Prompt at Boot in Windows 8


Here's How:


1. Boot to the Recovery options screen.


2. Click on the Troubleshoot option. (see screenshot below)



3. Click on Advanced options. (see screenshot below)


4. Click on the Command prompt option. (see screenshot below)


5. If prompted, select and click on a listed administrator account that you want to log in as. (see screenshot below)
NOTE: You will only see this if you used the F8 option to boot to recovery options, and not if you booted from your Windows 8 installation media. Standard user accounts and domain accounts on the computer will not be listed.



6.Type in the password of the selected administrator account, and click on Continue. (see screenshot below)


7. The elevated command prompt at boot will now open.
