Meterpreter gives us complete access to the target machine by setting up an interactive command prompt. We can also drop a shell session to work in the default Windows DOS mode, but it will not have as many functionalities. This was a quick reference to some of the important filesystem commands of Meterpreter, which can help us in exploring the files present on the target machine. There are more commands as well; it is recommended that you try them out and find the various possibilities which exist.
In the next recipe, we will look at a very interesting Meterpreter command called timestomp, which can be used to modify the file attributes on the target machine.
