privileges - Open files via an elevated context menu program
2014-04
So I've created in context menu an "open with Ollydbg" option.How can I run olly as an administrator from that point on?What command or arguments should I use?I run into a "ShellExecuteEx" command but still no luck
- Open Olly executable's properties.
- Click the Compatibility tab.
- Check Run this program as an administrator.
ShellExecuteEx
is an API function, not a command. You could use it if you were developing an application to run other EXEs with elevated privileges.
If you want to run any program with elevated privileges from a command line, create a sudo.cmd
file in any directory in your PATH:
@echo Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") > %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs
@echo args = Right("%*", (Len("%*") - Len("%1"))) >> %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs
@echo objShell.ShellExecute "%1", args, "", "runas" >> %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs
@cscript %temp%\sudo.tmp.vbs
Then type for example sudo notepad C:\example.txt
to open C:\example.txt
in elevated Notepad. (original source)
The question says it all. Inside of the file explorer under Windows XP, I lost all menu items from the top, as well as the toolbars. And right-clicking only gives me the file/directory context menu, nothing to restore the toolbar or the menu. Help. I don't use Windows so much (I much prefer linux), so I don't know all the latest tricks and hacks.
Merci :-)
The following site has several tips to try in order to find the menu bar:

Try this
Start | Run | Type: gpedit.msc | Click OK |
Navigate to >>>
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\
Windows Explorer\
Find section called "Remove File menu from Windows Explorer"
Set to: Not configured
From Robert William's answer. This is what worked for me:
In Full Screen (F11) the Menu Bar, the Address Bar and Links can be added. You can also right click the Toolbar and select Menu Bar.
