Windows Privilege Escalation (WPE) Capstone Walkthroughs

The Cyber Mentor made three hours of the Windows Privilege Escalation (WPE) for Beginners course free on YouTube. The full course is available on the TCM Security Academy website. I highly recommend checking this out.

As part of the WPE course, you will be given Capstone Challenges. You are given five rooms (four from Hack The Box and one from TryHackMe) to complete. The rooms are arranged in order of difficulty, with the first room being the easiest and the last room being the hardest.

I highly recommend trying it out on your own first. If you get stuck, refer to the walkthroughs I posted below. In some cases, there is more than one method to escalate your privileges, so I also recommend checking out walkthroughs completed by others.
