Description
Summary of the new feature/enhancement
Current situation:
- Suppose you are working on something in Powershell, CMD
- You went into some folder
- You built some history
- You find out that you need administrator rights for some command
Currently most console apps (Powershell, CMD) need to start a new session for getting administrator access. This results in a less optimal workflow, because then you lose
- your current working folder (you need to
cdinto it again) - your command history (the administrator session has its own history)
Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
A bit like sudo, started with a button:
- Console sessions in terminal start with default permissions
- Terminal has button with padlock icon / text "upgrade to administrator" in one of the corners
- When you click the button, the current session is upgraded to a session with admin permissions or downgraded again to normal permissions
- Session command history and location (working directory) is kept
Reactions are currently unavailable
