Here is how to install Pentestbox in your PC
- Disable your antivirus because it contains hacking tools, so you need to disable your antivirus. Don’t worry your computer will not be hacked. If you install Metasploit window version, then you have to disable your antivirus. It contains too many hacking tools so disable antivirus.
- If you don’t know to disable antivirus don’t worry I will tell you
- Open your antivirus click on settings and turn off Antivirus
- Download it from the official site. It has two variant Pentestbox and Pentestbox with Metasploit. I recommend you to use second because it has Metasploit which is mother father of Penetration testing.
- Open this. it will ask you extract folder by default it is c:\pentestbox I strongly recommend you to choose default C:\pentestbox it is easy to uninstall if want in future or easy to launch. Click on Extract button
- It will take some time to extract files. In my computer, it takes 29 minutes to extract fully. After extracting it will close automatically.
- Now installation is done you need to open it. It is not standard software that will present in All programs. This tool compiles Linux programmers into windows. To launch it go to c:\pentestbox [where you install it] and open pentestbox
Now you are ready to use it. Here is its default look

Limitations of Pentestbox
Conclusion: There are many advantages of Pentestbox over Kali Linux. because many critical work can be done by only Microsoft Windows Not why Kali Linux that’s why 50% people in pen testing use virtualization. Pentestbox is much better than Virtualization. I strongly recommend you to use this tool.
