If I run TCMD as Administrator (option on shortcut) do the tabs that I then open -- such as PowerShell -- inherit those Admin properties? Regards, Chuck Billow
Cool. IS there a way I could have found that out "on my own" from TCMD or the software running in the tabs?
You can ask PowerShell (of course it isn't easy). Here's a simplification of some code I Googled up. Code: $wid=[System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent() $prp=new-object System.Security.Principal.WindowsPrincipal($wid) $adm=[System.Security.Principal.WindowsBuiltInRole]::Administrator $IsAdmin=$prp.IsInRole($adm) if ($IsAdmin) { echo yes }
If you run CMD.EXE in a tab in an elevated Take Command, the tab caption will start with "Administrator:" -- reflecting the underlying console window.
