This is a set of tools and functions for managing licensing, deploying, and activating Microsoft Office and Windows. All output from these functions is displayed in the Information Console. All functions are run in the background and the GUI is disabled to prevent running multiple functions, as they could conflict or cause damage if run concurrently. The Microsoft Office Setup Customization Functions (Customize Setup Tab), AutoKMS Uninstaller (if AutoKMS is installed), AutoRearm Uninstaller (if AutoRearm is installed), Office Uninstaller and Product Key Checker work even if Microsoft Office or Windows is not installed/supported. For information about individual functions, see the program readme.

SYSTEM PROPERTIES
ADVANCED COMMAND PROMPT
TEXT SELECTION KEYS
These combinations interoperate with the mouse so you can start selecting with the mouse and continue with one of these commands, or vice versa.
Selection Key Combination
Description
SHIFT + LEFT ARROW
Moves the cursor to the left one character, extending the selection.
SHIFT + RIGHT ARROW
Moves the cursor to the right one character, extending the selection.
SHIFT + UP ARROW
Selects text up line by line starting from the location of the insertion point.
SHIFT + DOWN ARROW
Extends text selection down one line, starting at the location of the insertion point.
SHIFT + END
If cursor is in current line being edited
* First time extends selection to the last character in the input line.
* Second consecutive press extends selection to the right margin.
Else
Selects text from the insertion point to the right margin.
SHIFT + HOME
If cursor is in current line being edited
* First time extends selection to the character immediately after the command prompt.
* Second consecutive press extends selection to the left margin.
Else
Extends selection to the left margin.
SHIFT + PAGE DOWN
Extends selection down one screen.
SHIFT + PAGE UP
Extends selection up one screen.
CTRL + SHIFT + RIGHT ARROW
Extends the selection one word to the right.
CTRL + SHIFT + LEFT ARROW
Extends the selection one word to the left.
CTRL + SHIFT + HOME
Extend selection to the beginning of the screen buffer.
CTRL + SHIFT + END
Extend selection to the end of the screen buffer.
CTRL + A
If cursor is in current line being edited
Selects all text after the prompt. (phase 1)
Else
Selects the entire buffer. (phase 2)
EXTRA FUN WITH CTRL + A
CTRL + A behavior is interesting. Regardless of the state of mark mode and quick edit mode, one of two things should happen. Either the entire buffer is selected, or (only in a single case) '2-Phase select' starts. 2-Phase select is the process where the first CTRL-A selects the characters to the right of the edit line prompt, and the second press selects the entire buffer.
EDITING KEYS
As I mentioned above you can copy and paste text with the keyboard. When copying text, you might worry that CTRL + C has always been the BREAK command. This is a nice touch, it will still send the break signal to the running application when no text is selected. The first CTRL-C copies the text and clears the selection, and the second one signals the break. Nice attention to detail, IMHO.
Editing Key Combination
Description
CTRL + V
Paste text into the command line.
SHIFT + INS
Paste text into the command line.
CTRL + C
Copy selected text to the clipboard.
CTRL + INS
Copy selected text to the clipboard.
MARK MODE KEYS
These keys function in mark mode. You can enter this mode by right-clicking anywhere in the console title bar and choosing Edit->Mark from the context menu as before, or via the new shortcut combination, CTRL-M. In the original console, mark mode resulted in block mode text selection. While in mark mode, you can hold down the ALT key at the start of a text selection command to use block mode in the new console. The selection key combinations above are all available in mark mode. CTRL + SHIFT + ARROW operations select by character and not by word while in mark mode.
Mark Mode Key Combination

CTRL + M
Enter "Mark Mode" to move cursor within window.
ALT
In conjunction with one of the selection key combinations, begins selection in block mode.
ARROW KEYS
Move cursor in the direction specified.
PAGE KEYS
Move cursor by one page in the direction specified.
After upgrading to Windows 8.1 Update, Microsoft adds several enhancements to Windows 8.1 user experience, where one of them is the Power button now available by default on the Start screen on the top right corner, together with a Search button and user account name.
If you’re content with the options which are currently available to shutdown, restart, sleep, hibernate your computer or switch user, such as via Charms bar and Quick Access Power User menu, you may not want another Power button on the Start screen.
Furthermore, there may be cases where the Power button on the Start screen should be showing after installing Windows 8.1 Update, but for some reasons, it’s not appearing.
Whatever the case may be, the following trick may be useful for you who want to show or hide the Power button on the Start screen.
