Am opening windows cmd.exe as administrator and executing an installer(just call installer.exe) and it runs fine. But if I open the cmd.exe in normal mode ( not as administrator) but run the command as user administrator ( runas /profile /user:adminstrator installer.exe) am not able to execute the installer successfully.
The installer unpacks certain files in c:\users\ dir.
The error that I get is :
"Error running java -Dpython.console.encoding=UTF-8 -jar C:\users\<username>/tools/x.jar : Program ended with an error exit code. "
How can I solve this issue? Since am trying to automate executing this installer, opening the cmd.exe as admin is out of question. I would like to run the command as a normal user or if not possible, as an admin.
Am new to Windows. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
You could create the .bat file with the line you want to run, then follow the procedures listed below to have it automatically run as an administrator.
Right click on the original file and click Create shortcut.
Right click on the shortcut and select the properties option.
Under the shortcut tab, click on the advanced button in the bottom right hand corner.
Check the box that says run as administrator
Click ok, and then ok.
Now when you double click on the batch file shortcut it will run as an administrator. You can delete the original if you wish to.

I downloaded Cmder on my PC but I want that the cmd starts on a folder as then I can navigate because if not the cmd starts in the Cmder folder and I can't go anywhere. Can someone help me, please? Wish you understood me!
Very simple and best way to get CMDER wherever you want is adding it to de Windows Context Menu (right click).
Open a terminal as an Administrator
Navigate to the directory you have placed Cmder
Execute .\cmder.exe /REGISTER ALL
If you get a message "Access Denied" ensure you are executing the command in an Administrator prompt.
In a file explorer window right click in or on a directory to see "Cmder Here" in the context menu.
From: https://github.com/cmderdev/cmder#shortcut-to-open-cmder-in-a-chosen-folder
Tip: put the CMDER files in c:\Program Files\CMDER
If I understood you correctly, you want to change the directory you start from each time you open a new terminal.
To do that:
click Win+Alt+t to open the settings
In the settings group 'Startup' choose 'Tasks'
Choose the console you want to modify (e.g. cmd::Cmder, cmd::Cmder as Admin, etc..)
Click the 'Startup dir...' button
Select the directory you want the console to startup in by default
Enjoy!
You dont give us much to go on but you should have a shortcut with which to start cmder perhaps on your desktop something like this.
If not find your installed copy of cmder.exe then Right Click it then select Send To
and then finally select "Desktop (as shortcut)"
Right click the shortcut and select Properties of that shortcut and then add your prefered starting DIRectory after a /start DIRective

Here's the situation, every time I need to do the step below after I boot my computer:
Open the cmd(admin)
copy this cmd into cmd:
C:\Windows\system32\netsh int ipv4 set glob defaultcurhoplimit=65
enter
For now, I hope to double click a file that can directly execute the command above without the step above.
Any method?
You can save it to .bat or .cmd file and run it on double-click.
Create a file with any name and extension .bat I.g. setLimit.bat. I assume you know how to create files.
Open file from above step in file editor, i.g. notepad.exe. Copy and paste line C:\Windows\system32\netsh int ipv4 set glob defaultcurhoplimit=65 into the file and press Ctrl+S to safe it. I hope it makes sense otherwise ask.
Double click on the file to execute the command.
If you need to run it under elevated privilege (i.e. admin) right click on file and choose Run as administrator option in menu.
You need a .bat file to execute the command and a shortcut to have it executed as administrator.
Creating the .bat file is trivial: use you favorite text editor (or notepad), type the command, optionnaly add a line PAUSE if you want to see eventual messages and save it to disk with a .bat extension (say c:\...\sethoplimit.bat)
Creating the shortcut is not much harder: right click on desktop, Create new..., Shortcut, and just select the newly created file
The magic comes now: right click on the newly created shortcut and click Properties, in Shortcut tab, click the Advanced button and select Execute as admin.
That's all. Each time you double click on the shortcut, Windows will start a console with elevated priviledges, eventually open the User Account Control confirmation dialog, and execute the batch file as administrator.
Here I showed you how to create the shortcut directly on the Desktop, but the same process can be used for a shortcut anywhere on a disk folder.
At first: Yes, I know different answers like this, but this is not what I want ...
I have a Batch script (on Win7) which must be executed with Administrator rights. To do that the user must right click the Batch file and select "Runs as administrator" to execute the script. The "NET SESSION", "AT" and so on solutions of answers like in the link above doesn't not work, because "NET SESSION" returns me the same result: there is no different if I start the Batch file with a double click or if I start it while selecting "Run as Administrator". But I need to find out if the Batch file is started with "Run as administrator" ...
Any Solutions for that?
Ok. Thanks for your comments. Today I figure out what happens.
Our admin has change the configuration of the cmd.exe application so that the cmd.exe starts in every case with administration rights. So theres no different between a double click on "cmd.exe" and starting it with "Run as Adminstrator". And so my script returns the same result in both cases!
I have written a batch file which will call another batch file and delete some files. For this I need to have admin rights. I tried following command...
runas /user:bala#nsc cmd
Enter the password for bala#nsc: xxxxxxx
Even though bala#nsc has admin rights command prompt is getting opened as a simple user rather than administrator.
I guess, I am missing something. Please help me.
Your results aren't what I expected, either. But I've got a few workarounds to suggest.
You could turn off User Account Control.
You could go to Start --> All Programs --> Accessories, then right-click on "Command Prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator."
You could right-click on your batch script and do the same.
You could create a shortcut to either cmd or your batch script on your Desktop, then modify the properties of that shortcut to run as Administrator.
You could add some code to your batch script to check for admin privileges and prompt for escalation if needed.
Turning off UAC would be my choice.
I'm trying to run a batch file as admin. I found that I can use runas command which corresponds sudo command in Linux I think.
I tried
runas /noprofile /user:computername\adminuser "blah.bat start"
But it gives an error, saying :
Logon failure: user account restriction.. (msdos window doesn't allow me to copy anything) is there any way I can run this batch file as admin? Right click doesn't work because I can't include any parameters.
A workaround: You can create a shortcut to the batch file, add a parameter in the shortcut, then right-click to run the shortcut as admin.
Right-click the icon for the command-prompt and choose Run As Administrator. Then run you batch file from that window.
I believe that you can allow or disallow the RunAs command with the registry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer
"HideRunAsVerb"= 1
