Start CMD in NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM contekst fast with hidden feature in PsExec.exe

 

I just heard about this hidden feature of PSEXEC.EXE run cmd first as administrator

and then PSEXEC.EXE -sid cmd

this will bring up a new cmd windows in NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM contekst

PSEXEC.EXE is the tool from Mark Russinovich

  • You can use PSEXEC.exe on the K1000 to mimic scripts as Local System Account - http://www.kace.com/support/resources/kb/article/How-to-mimic-running-a-script-as-Local-System-User-Scripting - Aaron Cool 12 years ago
  • This is possibly one of the most useful tools I have ever found as an Administrator. - elgoosea 12 years ago

  • This is not a hidden feature. It's three commands stacked together, all of which are covered in the built-in help:

    -s Run the remote process in the System account.
    -i Run the program so that it interacts with the desktop.
    -d Don't wait for the process to terminate. - mazessj 12 years ago
