Elevated Command Prompt

Hi Tommy,

A command prompt is an entry point for typing computer commands in the Command Prompt window. By typing commands in an elevated command prompt, you can perform tasks that require administrator rights on your computer without using the Windows graphical interface.
You may open an elevated Command Prompt by following the steps below.

1. Open the Start menu, and type cmd to open the search box.

2. When Command Prompt shows up in the search results, right click or press and hold on it, then click/tap on
Run as administrator.

Feel free to post your query should you need assistance.

 

The idiocy of the elevated command prompt

Things I can't do at an "unelevated" command prompt:

chkdsk

ipconfig (flushdns or release & renew)

Things I CAN do without an "elevated" command prompt. Even on a server:

"shutdown -f -t 1"

diskpart

This is not a complete list, just an off the top of my head. It seems like if a command could help fix something easily it's locked down. If a command could potentially cause mayhem and destruction it's wide open.

Make Elevated Command Prompt open to %userprofile%

Sorry, my mind isn't what it used to be I guess. I had completely forgotten about that thread.

I saved info from both threads this time and now have a working Admin Command prompt that opens to my user profile folder.

Thanks everyone.

Hydranix, I haven't tried your suggestion yet, will in a few minutes though.

Edit: Hydranix, yes, this works well also. Thanks
