See more: (untagged)

I have a batch file called test.bat, i am calling the below instructions in test.bat file

"start /min powershell.exe %sysdrive%\testScripts\testscript1.ps1"

When i run this through the command prompt my testscript is running successfully. i want to run it as administrator(like i have created a desktop item and run as administrator, it shouldn't prompt for any username or password)

I have tried adding "/elevate" and "/NOUAC" parameters in the above test.bat but no luck. can someone help me how to fix this issue?

I know how to do it manually but i want this to be executed from the command prompt
thanks in advance.

Solution 1

You could open the command prompt as administrator, then use it to run the program.
