Sudo command For Vista
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to Windows Reference RSS feed Thanks for visiting!
In Windows Vista, you have limited privileges on the machine, although you’re a power user. This means that programs you run have limited permissions, and you must elevate your privileges whenever you want to perform certain administrative-tasks, such as changing system settings or installing programs.
Start++ is a set of utilities to enrich your Vista start menu, but we’re only interested in its built-in Sudo utility.
The Vista Sudo utility is based on the popular Linux Sudo command, which allows a permitted user to execute a command as the superuser (root). So now, whenever you need to run a program with administrative rights, just open the Start menu and type sudo along with the program name.
