How to change MAC Address in Windows OS using CLI/CMD?

Question

In Linux, I can change MAC Address easily using ifconfig command.

e.g.

sudo ifconfig eth0 hw ether xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

Is possible to do the same via CLI in Windows OS?

I know we can change it via Network Adapter's properties or registry, I just want to know if this is possible via CLI.

AFAIK I don't think there is any normal way to change your MAC address in Windows without using a GUI. — Razetime, Apr 10 '18 at 10:47

You can change the registry via CLI. Therefore, anything you can change via registry you can also change via CLI.

reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\..." /v NetworkAddress /t REG_SZ /d 1a2b3c...
