This is a set of small scripts meant to work in conjunction to give elevated priviledges to non-elevated users on Windows 10 computers.
I have done my best to streamline the scatted code I found across the internet into a simple process that, given you even found this is the first place, should be easy to use. Follow the directions below to create a new local admin account on the computer you run this on.

Download the .zip from the green Clone or download
button above and to the right or Click Here
Note: The download may be flagged as a virus. That's because it basically is. You're accessing admin priveledges when you shouldn't be.
You can always verify code inside of each file here on GitHub before downloading if you don't want to blindly trust someone on the internet.
Extract the downloaded .zip file.
Locate the file aptly named Right-Click-Run-with-PowerShell
and, as the name suggests, right click the file and Run with PowerShell. You may also launch Activate.bat
if this isn't an available option.
Follow the prompt in the new popup window.
I suggest using the file location of the addadmin.bat
file inside the extracted folder. It should be set to that location by default. Otherwise, change it manually. If you would rather start a file that requires elevated privileges to run but don't want to create an admin account, change the location in the input box to the location of that file.
If you do choose to use the addadmin.bat
file, follow the onscreen directions. The file will prompt you for an account name and passowrd. Keep them short and don't add spaces. This is to keep anything from uninstentionally breaking. The prompts will be inside of the new Command Prompt window, not a seperate popup like before.
I suggest using the program UAC Pass in conjunction with this program. If you would like to use it, you can find it at https://sites.google.com/site/freeavvarea/UACPass-en.
