    We appreciate you getting back to us. To change the cmd name, we suggest that you follow this steps:

    • Open a Command Prompt (Adimin) window: Win+X, A, Alt+Y
    • Then run the following command to change your computer name to Donner: WMIC ComputerSystem where Name=COMPUTER-NAME call Rename Name=NewName
    • Reboot your PC.
    • Try to run ipconfig / all command, you should find that the Host Name in Windows IP Configuration list has been changed to the new name.

    Windows Script Host

    Hi Tiara,

    The message "Windows Script Host access is disabled on this machine. Contact your administrator for details" is usually occurring if a program that does not require the feature of Windows Script Host is running on a Windows PC. For us to provide an accurate
    solution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

    • Which build, version and edition of Windows is installed on your computer?
    • Does the message appear when you are launching a specific application?
    • What changes were made to the device before this issue happened?

    For initial troubleshooting, we suggest following the steps provided by
    Ramesh Srinivasan     in this thread.

    We are looking forward to your response.

    host machine name

    Full machine name in host file not resolving to local ip 127.0.0.1 in windows 10

    In windows 7 machine, mapping the full machine name to local host ip 127.0.0.1 in host file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc) seems to be working fine.

    Means after putting the below entry in host file, I ping with my full machine name and I'm getting reply from 127.0.0.1

    127.0.0.1 Test-L7.mydomain.com

    However the same configuration is not working in window 10 machine, ping returns actual ip 10.16.xx.xxx. I disconnected my network and did the ping, this time it return 127.0.0.1.

    How to resolve full machine name to local ip 127.0.0.1 ?

    Thanks
