Opening app as Admin

[wanderer]

I have a button in TC's toolbar for command prompt. When i rightclick on it, there is no way to open it "as admin". Is there an option somewhere to achieve that (for all app buttons). If not, i would like for it to be added as a wish.

That works for me. (win10 and TC10)

Total Commander 7.56 beta 1

04.11.10 Added: Button bar right click menu: Menu item "As Administrator" for running the program of that button with admin rights

F1 > Help > search for "button"

> go to "Dialog box: Configuration - Change button bar"

Command:
1.
. . .. .
.. . . . Put an asterisk '*' in front of the name to start it with administrative rights,
or two '**' to start is as a different user . . . .
. . . .

17.11.10 Release Total Commander 7.56 beta 2
17.11.10 Added: Button bar: Begin command with a '*' followed by a full path or env. variable to always start the program with admin rights

HTH?

Great, thanks for the info. This requires a separate button though if you wish to execute it at a time as you and at another time as admin. It would be better if in such cases (external apps), there was an additional entry in the context menu ("As Admin").

EDIT: This doesn't seem to work with cm_ExecuteDOS...

I had already modified my post and added the info to "run as admin" in context menu.



For your button use
*cmd /c
or
*%comspec% /c
instead of the internal CM_ command
