HackerTool is a Windows-based terminal utility written in Python. It includes a stylized menu system, an interactive "Hacking Terminal" shell, built-in app installers (e.g., Java), and a self-update feature using GitHub Releases.

• 🎯 Arrow-Key Menu Navigation with Color Output
• 🔐 Password Protection (Default: hack1ng)
• 🔄 Auto-Updater that checks for the latest executable via GitHub
• 💻 Custom Command-Line Shell (Hacking Terminal) with:
  • Windows-style prompt
  • Built-in cd, mkdir, scan, and colour commands
  • Command output with dynamic ANSI color wrapping
• ☕ Java 21 Installer with PATH auto-updating

• Windows 10+
• Python 3.8+
• Installed modules:
  • colorama
  • msvcrt (built-in on Windows)

1. Run the compiled EXE

   Unfortunately, running the uncompiled script will not work due to the auto-updating system.

   The script prompts for a password (hack1ng) before proceeding.

2. Navigate the menu using ↑ ↓ and select with Enter.

3. Available menu options:

   • Install apps → Install Java 21
   • UEN v1 → Coming Soon
   • Hacking Terminal → Launch interactive shell
   • Quit → Exit HackerTool

• cd [dir] — Change directory (only within ~/hacking-terminal)
• mkdir <name> — Make a new directory
• scan <name> — Scans your local network for devices whose hostnames contain <name>. Uses multi-threaded ping sweeps and reverse DNS lookups to find matching devices on your subnet.
• colour <name> — Change prompt/output color
  Available colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, white, black, grey, default
• exit / quit — Exit terminal

If a newer hackertool.exe is published on the linked GitHub repository, the app will:

• Download the EXE to a temp location
• Verify it with SHA256
• Replace the running executable with the new one
• Restart automatically

GitHub Release API endpoint:

https://api.github.com/repos/User4534503/hackertool/releases/latest

Downloads Java 21 from Oracle, extracts it to %userprofile%\Java21, and adds it to the system Path via the Windows Registry.

C:\Users\<user>\
└── hacking-terminal\
    ├── ... (user files created in terminal)
└── Java21\
    └── jdk-21\ (Java install)

• This is Windows-only due to msvcrt, winreg, and ctypes.windll usage
