\n<\/span><\/a>Open Powershell as Admin on Right-Click<\/h1>\n

I described how to set a context menu option<\/a> to open a Powershell console on right click earlier.<\/p>\n

To open Powershell as admin on right click, we can add a command to be executed on start to our registry entry like so<\/p>\n

\n
$stpath<\/span> = pwd<\/span>;<\/span> Start-Process PowerShell -ArgumentList \\\"<\/span>-NoExit\\\"<\/span>, \\\"<\/span>-Command cd<\/span> $stpath<\/span>\\\"<\/span> -verb RunAs<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n
So our Command<\/code> in the registry entry will look like the following<\/p>\n
\n
\"<\/span>C:\\Windows\\System32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe\"<\/span><\/span> -windowstyle hidden -Command $stpath<\/span> = pwd<\/span>;<\/span> Start-Process PowerShell -ArgumentList \\\"<\/span>-NoExit\\\"<\/span>, \\\"<\/span>-Command cd<\/span> $stpath<\/span>\\\"<\/span> -verb RunAs<\/pre>\n<\/div>\n
The downside of this approach is that first a normal Powershell window is opened, which opens a new Powershell window as admin if the user has the priviledges, and then the original Powershell window closes in the background.<\/p>\n
This results in a flicker when Powershell is run as admin. \ud83d\ude22<\/g-emoji><\/p>\n
\"Run<\/a><\/p>\n
If you find a flickerless approach to doing this, please leave a comment on this gist<\/a>. Thanks!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
