Sudo for Windows gives you a minimal `sudo` that works in cmd.exe and PowerShell.

|
## Cheat Sheet
|
|
|
|
> Sudo for Windows isn't real `sudo`, but it's close enough for certain tasks -
|
|
> like installing WSL (the Windows Subsystem for Linux), without opening a GUI
|
|
> to Alt-Click "Run as Administrator".
|
|
|
|
### Example: Enabling WSL
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
sudo.cmd dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Raw PowerShell
|
|
|
|
`sudo.cmd` is simply an alias of a powershell elevation command:
|
|
|
|
```pwsh
|
|
@echo off
|
|
powershell -Command "Start-Process cmd -Verb RunAs -ArgumentList '/c cd /d %CD% && %*'"
|
|
@echo on
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: replace `/c` with `/k` if you'd like the window to stay open rather than
|
|
closing automatically.
