Help with elevated Internal associations actions

[Mummu]

I searched the forum but didn't find anything about this.

My goal is to make a few context menu commands for all files and folders, but one of them needs to be elevated.

So far this works fine:

Code: Select all

Filter28=*
Filter28_test1=cmd.exe /c something1 "%1" 
Filter28_test2=cmd.exe /c something2 "%1" 

Under XP it works fine, but on win7 i need elevated rights for this to work.
How to make the command run with elevated rights?

i tried to add * before it, but then it didnt show in the context menu

Try using a tool called sudo: http://www.totalcmd.net/plugring/Sudo.html. Download it somewhere and change your internal commands to something like:

Code: Select all

Filter28_test1=sudo.exe "cmd.exe" "/c something "%1""

Sudo asks for credentials under Windows XP even under administrator accounts so it may be not so convenient here. But if Windows 7 is the only used system, it will work fine.

Thanks. Sudo did the trick, but it would be awesome if we had it internal, like with the button bar
