    Avoiding UAC prompts when starting self-made batch scripts


    Hello,

    Is there a way to avoid UAC prompts when starting self-made batch scripts by "signing" them and making an exception for all scripts containing this signing or is this just not possible ?

    UAC prompt from batch runas administrator

    If you can change to running the batch file from a shortcut instead of the command line then you could solve the problem by setting that shortcut to requiring Admin [right-click on the shortcut, Properties, Advanced, Run as Admin]. The desired standard
    UAC prompt will then appear whenever the shortcut runs.

    If you start the batch file from Task scheduler then that can be made to co-operate with you. It normally refuses to run shortcuts but you can work around the limitation - see

    UAC prompt from batch runas administrator

    I have a batch file that starts several programs. Yes I could start them all manually and or load whatever file I need, but this saves me a little time since I always have to start these programs and load certain profiles etc. However, the last one I
    need to run requires administrator.

    I tried runas.exe /user:administrator (or even my microsoft@account, which is admin) but this prompts for a password within the console.

    Is there a way to run as admin via command line without prompt for password, and instead for the user to enter the password and or accept via the standard UAC popup window?

    Hello -- I have a batch file that runs a program that query the UAC and will prompt me every time I run -- It a safe program -- is there a way to set

    up a "white list" so UAC will not prompt for confirmation?
