How to Run as Administrator in Vista Command Line?
Recently I wanted to do some actions in Windows Vista command line prompt but with elevated access as an Administrator. You may need this access to do actions like creating symbolic links etc.
So, how to run as administrator in Vista command line?
The easiest way is to use the type cmd in the Vista Start Run box and use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Enter instead of just pressing Enter. This will open the Command Prompt in Administrator mode.
You can also right click cmd.exe and click Run as Administrator.
