Is there any single line command for Run As Different User in Windows 7.
I am using following command but then it ask for password
runas /user:USER-NAME "C:\full\path\of\Program.exe"
Is there any way to supply password also in above line ? Actually i am launching application from other application so I don't want any user interaction But in above command it ask user for PASSWORD
PsExec in the MS SysInternals suite:
psexec -user Administrator -p Passwd "xcopy a.xml \\server_over_there\c$\A.xml"
In case the local user is NOT what you need and a specific DOMAIN user is, use:
/user Username in form USER#DOMAIN or DOMAIN\USER
(USER#DOMAIN is not compatible with /netonly)

I need a single line order, whit password included
Thank you
I have a Python code that finally generates a file and it should automatically run that file as admin. I did search and found that I should use runas program, but it requires admin password.
Since I have not set any administrator password, so it should not ask for password in order to work.
The script is route add -p IP to change routing table.
There are multiple PCs in the office and all PCs have one user like saeed, david, etc. and administrator of course which has not been used yet.
The command I use is the following that asks for admin password:
C:\Users\Saeed\Desktop> Runas /profile /user:administrator ips.cmd
Enter the password for administrator:
Attempting to start new-ips.cmd as user "DESKTOP-9PR0R3P\administrator" ...
RUNAS ERROR: Unable to run - new-ips.cmd
1326: The user name or password is incorrect.
Is that possible to run run as passwordless?
I should mention that if with my current PC, I right click on ips.cmd and Run As Administrator, it does not prompt any password and runs the file.
Using this command works for me:
powershell.exe "Start-Process powershell -verb runAs"
What I mean:
If I...
run runas /netonly /user:computername\username cmd
enter the password for the local admin account "username"
then type psexec \\computername cmd
I now have a working shell and can run commands as the local admin user on the remote machine.
However, trying to run this without the runas... and instead with the username and password arguments of psexec returns an access denied error.
Example below:
psexec \\computername -u username -p password cmd
Access Denied
Note: Others seem to also have this issue. My refined questions:
Is this intended behavior?
Why even have the -u and -p?
I have also tried disabling the firewall on both my machine and the target machine, and adding the registry key listed here.
When you initiate a connection with PsExec.exe, it tries to use the credentials you are currently authenticated with to copy the PSEXESVC to the \\$machine\ADMIN$\System32 share VIA SMB, which enables the communication with your PsExec.exe and the $machine's service.
If your currently logged in user account does not have access to \\$machine\ADMIN$\System32 and the ability to install/start services, then this won't work.
I'm assuming if you have access with your user account that this would work.
Here is a very interesting article from 2004 on reverse-engineering of the original implementation. I am pretty sure it has changed in that time with Windows 7 & Windows 10.
I was trying to change my windows password via command:
net user Adminstrator newpassword
However, I accidentally did this
net user Administrator "newpassword"
There is no special character in the password
Now I am not able to logon my Administrator account via either newpassword or "newpassword"
Please help.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Apparently it is an issue for Windows password change command, that you cannot put double quotes in the password, and if you did, the command will be executed successfully but nobody knows what the password is.
I resolved this issue via resetting admin password to default following the instruction at:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/WindowsGuide/ResettingAdminPassword_EC2Config.html
I was lucky I am having this issue with AWS EC2 instance, otherwise I won't be able to resolve like that.
It happens when using escape sequence in command prompt
Run the following command in command prompt with administrator privilege
echo EnteredPassword >> C:\ActualPassword.txt
EnteredPassword is the password that you entered in the command prompt
And your actual password will be available in C:\ActualPassword.txt
I used to use runas for running my app under another user account. Now I need to pass the password through as well. I found that psexec is an easy way to do it.
So the batch file contains:
#echo off
psexec my.exe -u hostname\user -p password
The problem is my.exe is still being initiated under the user I'm currently logged onto the system with and not under the one declared in the cmd above.
the program must be the last argument
try this :
psexec -u hostname\user -p password my.exe
