A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

start-process -verb runashttps://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.management/start-process
Not the same as sudo, but mostly equivalent for single cmdlets or scripts.
That's where I started, of course - but you can't combine
-verbwith-credential. It's a silly limitation that seems to make sense to Microsoft. What you can do is configure asavecredwhich you can call with RunAs, but you then need to update that saved credential every time the password changes.I do have a
$Credentialobject that has been pulled out of the password safe that has elevation permissions, but can't seem to apply it non-interactively or without being in an elevated session. This appears to be by design. Not that I intended my comment to turn into a support question. 😀
