Access command prompt of another PC via IP

1. Download and extract PsTools to "C:\Windows\System32" in both source and target PCs (In my case both are Windows 8).

2. Open command prompt and type:

"reg add HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\system /v LocalAccountTokenFilterPolicy /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f"

Following was the output:

The operation completed successfully.

3. Let us access "ipconfig" remotely as an example. Type the following in the command prompt of the source computer.

psexec \\destination_ip_address -u destination_username -p destination_password ipconfig

Note:
If you get the following error, please try the code given below in the remote PC.

Error:
Couldn't access 192.168.1.106:
The network path was not found.

Make sure that the default admin$ share is enabled on 192.168.1.106.

Code to try:

Use RtMidi in Windows in a Microsoft Visual Studio C++ Project

Create a "Win32 Console Application" in Visual Studio.

Name it, click OK.

Click next.

Deselect "Precompiled header" and select "Empty project", click Finish.

Add a C++ (.cpp) file, name it and click Add.

Copy the code of "midiout.cpp" from this link to your .cpp file.
Change "SLEEP" in the code to "Sleep". (Since we are using Windows)
Add "#include " at the beginning of the code.
Copy "RtMidi.cpp", "RtMidi.h" and "RtError.h" files to your project folder. You can find these files from here.

Right click on your project in VS -> Add -> Existing item.
Select and add above three files to your project.

Now your project file structure will look like this.

Add "#define __WINDOWS_MM__" line at the beginning of the "RtMidi.h" file.

Right click on your project in VS -> Properties.

Go to Configuration properties -> Linker -> Input. Add "winmm.lib" at the end of "Additional dependencies".

Click Apply and OK.

Go to Visual Studio project. Press "F7". Press "Control key + F5". Then you can see the command prompt and can hear a short beep. If so, your RtMidi now works fine. Good luck!
