How to use console commands in Fallout 4
To first use console commands in Fallout 4, players will need to use the “~” or “`” key in the top left of the keyboard (on American keyboards). This will give a prompt for players to input different codes into the prompt in the lower-left corner.

There are loads of different commands that can be entered, allowing players to do just about anything in the game. Here’s a list of some of the most impactful ones we have identified.
