Runas with GUI

Written below is intended for advanced users ... not so much! (with)

In all the articles read, regardless of the author’s “religion”, we see one and the same recommendation - “do not work under the administrator’s account”. How to be Windows users accustomed to the graphical interface. runas username command you say. And if I need to change the rights to a specific directory? Cacls. After chmod, cacls at least seems unusual (for me personally and uncomfortable). And how to change the ip address? net to you! Yeah, and a drum around his neck . And again, this is not ipconfig.



As always, everything is simple to disgrace. Under the user account, run the command line, in which we enter the following: runas /user:_ "explorer /separate" where username is a user with administrator rights.

Voila! In the window that appears, you can use your usual way to configure access to files, go to the control panel, connect to a network folder and much more.
