    Sadly it doesn’t seem to handle the one use case I really wanted it to handle, which is running elevated commands through a terminal in a VSCode tunneling session without also having an RDP session open for me to click the confirmation dialog.

      You should theoretically be able to login as a admin. I’ve never used VScode so I have no idea what your setup looks like.

    This is the most non-credible real shit i’ve seen in a while. Sudo for windows? What is next? The whole gnutils native on windows? If they do that I’m going to be happy because i could play games that aren’t suported on linux but at the same time scraping all the big pile of shit that windows is packaged with.

    Like neutered Windows, like droping a huge nuke into Sytstem32 directory and killing every shit.

    No more you don have permisions to do this when i’m the only user, plus administrator. Current state it feels like microsoft is lending my computer to me or something.

    Well tbh Mac OS is having the same aproach. I’ve used old macos and nowadays all the things someone wants on an os are hidden in maze like preferences windows and whatever bullshit.

    I’ve been using gsudo for that for a while, but it’s nice to have native options.

    Doesn’t really make sense in the context of windows tbh

    sudo = “superuser do”

    They should have made it NT-ASdo for “NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM do”

    Except it should actually be a powershell module so you have to type out the whole thing as NT-AuthoritySystem-Do

      No, that required the local admin account to have a password, which is usually unset (and the account is also locked). This uses the UAC system instead.

        runas will run as whatever account you specify, so you can absolutely use it to run something as a domain admin account

      Is scoop better than chocolatey?

        i have both but i do prefer scoop over chocolatey since it’s a bit simpler to use. it’s also more like homebrew.

        winget-ui will pull from chocolatey and scoop and winget, though.

            doesn’t winget support msstore updates anyway?

            oh, or do you mean if scoop supported msstore?

              I’ve seen ms store options here too but I’ve never seen winget update existing ms store apps even though I pass the --all flag

        Way more stable and reliable. It just doesn’t install programs normally (installed programs won’t show up under add and remove)
