Free download of Microsoft Windows Script Host available.

Microsoft Windows Script Host (also referred to as Microsoft Windows Based Script Host) is the name of a scripting feature integrated in Microsoft Windows operating systems by Microsoft Corporation. It provides the underlying layer of the broader Microsoft Windows Script technology that supports and accommodates execution of programs written in scripting languages (scripts) such as VBScript or JScript.

In order to run a script, the script file (.vbs, .js, etc.) must be opened with the Microsoft Windows Script Host executable, either by manually specifying the path in the 'Open with...' dialog or associating the proper filename extension with WScript.exe. WScript.exe is the GUI executable associated with the Microsoft Windows Script Host feature. Located in the %SystemRoot%\System32 system folder, it is responsible for running the scripts in the desktop environment. The command-line version of the Microsoft Windows Script Host executable is represented by the CScript.exe file.

On some machines, Microsoft Windows Script Host may be disabled by the system administrator due to security concerns, in which case any attempt to launch a script processable by WScript.exe would fail with a warning prompt. Microsoft Windows Script Host (WScript.exe, CScript.exe) is included in the official Microsoft Windows distribution and requires no additional software installation.
