Simzy / RunAsAdminNoUAC.vbs

Created January 8, 2023 11:18 — forked from codeartery/RunAsAdminNoUAC.vbs

Will run the current VBScript as an administrator without a UAC prompt after the initial setup run.

	REM:<RunAsAdminNoUAC>
	' Place this code at the top of your VBScript file you'd like to run with admin permissions.
	' When you first run it it will ask for UAC permissions and run and add a task to your Windows 'Task Scheduler' with the name of the script.
	' From here on out the VBScript file name and location should not be changed.
	' Next time you run it, it will be called from the Task Scheduler with admin permissions and thus not prompt for UAC anymore.
	' This script runs with WScript.exe, and does not support command line arguments.
	' To delete the task, use the Windows Task Scheduler.
	With CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
	If WScript.Arguments.Named.Exists("CreateTask") Then
