The Windows Script Host (WSH) is Microsoft's response to the need for a way of programming Windows in a manner analogous to the way batch files can be used to automate jobs in MS-DOS. Rather as Office 2000 provides VBA (Visual Basic for Applications) as a development tool, Windows 98 and Windows 2000 contain the Windows Script Host.

WSH enables you to use scripting languages - VBScript and JScript are available by default - to access the Windows shell directly. As well as providing facilities of its own for tasks including shortcut management and registry manipulation, WSH enables the use of any Automation-compatible COM object. In other words, a script can be created with a simple text editor like Notepad, and used to control any process for which an object model exists.
