Runas is a very useful command on Windows OS. This command enables one to run a command in the context of another user account. One example scenario where this could be useful is: Suppose you have both a normal user account and an administrator account on a computer and currently you are logged in as normal user account. Now you want to install some software on the computer, but as you do not have admin privileges you can’t install the same from the current account. One option is to switch user and login as administrator. Instead, you can do the same by simply using runas command. You just need to launch the installer from command prompt using runas command and by providing administrator login id and password.

A batch file includes the commands to be executed by Command Prompt in Windows 10 (and older versions). I have already explained what is a batch file and how to create your own. However, you’ll. I can't seem to get the syntax down. I want to put a simple batch file on the public share F: and run it as full administrator rights. INSIDE OF THE DOMAIN LOGIN SCRIPT: Set oShell = WScript.CreateObject('WSCript.shell') oShell.run 'f: psexec.u BW administrator -p PaSSw0rd -c -F: adddomainuser.bat'. But as I'm reading it, the op wants to click a batch file and it will run in cmd prompt in administrator mode. Apart from physically opening cmd prompt in Admin mode and entering the bat file name, I don't think that it is possible. Well, after zs474's answer, there is a way, but not through normal methods.

Let’s see the syntax of runas command with some examples.
