• Amcache.hve
• Registry Files
• User NTUSER.dat files (from user profiles used within last 15 days)
• Internet History Files (IE, Firefox, Chrome from user profiles used within last 15 days)

When done collecting the artifacts, it will 7zip the data and yank the info off the box for off-line analysis.

NOTEs:

• All testing done on PowerShell v4+
• Requires RawCopy.exe (x32) & RawCopy64.exe for the extraction of "in use" files. Version: RawCopy v1.0.0.15 (latest as of writing)
• Requires ExtractUsnJrnl for the extraction of the NTFS change journal ($UsnJrnl)
• Autorunsc - Command line version of Autoruns; shows the programs configure to run during login, system bootup, and application plug-ins.
• Requires 7za.exe (7zip cmd line) for compression w/ password protection

Assumed Directories:
