    [How-To] Context menu "Open elevated Command Prompt Here" without UAC


    1. Create a newTask named OpenCmdHereAsAdminNoUAC and activate "Run with the highest privileges"

    2. Go to the Actions Tab, create a new Action "Start a Program" choose "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" and set the Working Directory (Start in) to
    %CURDIR%

    3. Create a Shortcut named OpenCmdHereAsAdminNoUAC.
    In the "Type the location of the item" Field type:

    C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /run /TN "\OpenCmdHereAsAdminNoUAC"


    and copy the created Shortcut to C:\Windows\System32

    Finally, add the attached "Add_Open_Command_Window Here_Admin_No_UAC.reg" to Registry.

    Code:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

    I prefer to have the UAC prompt for better security.

    The UAC prompt bothered me in this situation .
    But you are right, it is of course more secure if you do not bypass the UAC.

    Oh yeah... but i have already create and found the solution myself using powershell but i have used a different command.... i have used this:
    i have create the voices named "00_CmdHereAsAdmin"... in this mode my custom voices appears immediatelly after "Add to quick access". But from reg files download here i can now add the icon..............

    And i have used this:
    C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe -Command "Start-Process cmd -ArgumentList '/s,/k,pushd,%V' -Verb RunAs"

    I see the blue powershell and immediatelly after i see the command prompt... i thinks i can use the command suggested on .reg files....

    *EDIT*
    Warning...... i have apparently found a problems on .reg files in this link... the correct command i need to put it's:

    Code:
    PowerShell -windowstyle hidden -Command "Start-Process cmd -ArgumentList '/s,/k,pushd,%V' -Verb RunAs"
    In the .reg files contain a "" after -command and it's not works........ apparently the -windowstyle hidden it's no work because i can see the powershell windows otherwise........

    Hello DJ, :)

    Do you mean a problem from the .reg in the tutorial below?

    I'm not having any issue with it, so what issue are you having if so?

    Open command window here as administrator - Add in Windows 10

    This below is the command used by the .reg files in the tutorial.
