I made a script in PowerShell and I have to run with admin rights.
I also made a shortcut of that file and with right click -> properties, shortcut tab -> advanced -> run as admin is disabled.
How can I run a ps1. file (PowerShell file) with admin rights ? (see picture)
Hello @kinderu81,
Have a look at this . . .

I hope this helps.
Right-click on your shortcut, select Properties.
In the target field write this before the existing text
Code:powershell.exe
It will now let you click on the Advanced button and set the checkbox for Run as Admin.
Don't be concerned later on when you see that Windows has automatically added the full path to powershell.exe in that Target field. It will make no difference to you or your shortcut.

I was looking everywhere on how to enable the "Run as Administrator" option for a PowerShell shortcut.Right-click on your shortcut, select Properties.
In the target field write this before the existing text
Code:powershell.exe
It will now let you click on the Advanced button and set the checkbox for Run as Admin.
