Hello @duckyshine,
Welcome toTenForums.
I don't know if this helps, but I have aCustomised Toolbarwith different folders, one of which hasBatch Scripts. I just go to the folder and double-click theBatch Scriptthat I want to run.
I just thought that I would give you an alternative method.
it will work, if i add this manually to the registrybut it doesnt, when i run it from a .reg file like this. The Key will not get added to the registry. I guess, its because wrong formation of the string. What do i need to change?Code:powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden -NoProfile -Command "Start-Process -Verb RunAs cmd.exe -ArgumentList \"/k \"\"%1\"\"\"
Edit: This will workCode:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\OpenCmdHereAsAdmin] @="Open command window here as administrator" "Extended"=- "HasLUAShield"="" "Icon"="imageres.dll,-5323" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\OpenCmdHereAsAdmin\command] @="powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden -NoProfile -Command "Start-Process -Verb RunAs cmd.exe -ArgumentList \"/k \"\"%1\"\"\"
Code:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\OpenCmdHereAsAdmin] @="Open command window here as administrator" "Extended"=- "HasLUAShield"="" "Icon"="imageres.dll,-5323" [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\OpenCmdHereAsAdmin\command] @="powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden -NoProfile -Command \"Start-Process -Verb RunAs cmd.exe -ArgumentList \\\"/k \\\"\\\"%1\\\"\\\"\\\""

I added some minor cleanups to V5 so here's V5.01.
Update:
elecmd5_01.zip
In addition, eleposh (elevated PowerShell) V2 is out:
Add Open PowerShell window here as administrator in Windows 10
They are similar to this:
Add Open PowerShell window here as administrator in Windows 10
Only difference, the Command Prompt is opened in lieu of opening PowerShell 5.1, and, as a minor bonus, the Windows version info gets displayed in a human-friendly format on Windows 10/11.
I have a folders on my D:\..... it's name contain the " 's " strings and Open Command windows as admin it's not works.....
The path it's "D:\Randal's Monday" it's fixable ?
I already did fix it, a very long time ago. See:
Open command window here as administrator - Add in Windows 10
How it works:
Just extract (unzip) the folder so it will beC:\tools\elecmdand open that folder in File Explorer. There's a fileREADME.txtwith a full explanation, basically all you need to set it up is to create a new task in Task Scheduler and run a few scripts.
To create this task in Task Scheduler, please refer to OPTION TWO in this tutorial:
Create Elevated Shortcut without UAC prompt in Windows 10
Below are the steps that need to be modified to make it function correctly for our own intended purpose.
Step 3, the name of the task needs to match the name that's found near the bottom of the elecmd.vbs scriptfile:
cmd - elevated
Step 7, under Program/script, enter the following command:
%windir%\System32\wscript.exe
Step 8, under Arguments, enter the full filepath to the elecmdstart.vbs scriptfile, using doublequotes:
"C:\tools\elecmd\elecmdstart.vbs"
Steps 12 - 20, this whole part needs to be skipped.
Finally, run the script fileC:\tools\elecmd\Add_Shortcuts.vbsand also run the batchfileC:\tools\elecmd\Add_Shift+Open_cmd_window_here_as_admin_without_UAC.batso now your Shift + right-click menu has an option to Open (without showing the UAC prompt) command window here as administrator.
There's also a batchfileC:\tools\elecmd\Add_Shift+Open_cmd_window_here.batthat adds an option to Open command window here (as a normal user) if you like. For convenience, for those who prefer to use a .reg file (instead of a batchfile) for applying these changes to the Windows registry, I have included them both, and, for those who wish to remove (undo) these changes from the Windows registry, I have included the .reg files for that too.
Please just let me know if you have questions.
