A Batch File to Disable/Enable Ethernet w/o Run as Admin

Updated: More commands and colourful.

This is a batch file to disable and enable your ethernet connection without "run as admin", so you don't need to go to control panel or unplug your cable again in order to disable your connection.

This disables your ethernet networking port and reenables it. 10 seconds is the "law packet" time in GTA. If you miss a law packet, it puts you in a solo session.

I wrote a program in C that does this by pausing and unpausing the process, as well as a session lock tool by adding a firewall rule, as well as fixing Discord's priority for shit computers so Discord audio doesn't cut out when GTA uses too much CPU time.

No, it's not public.
