Use pre-determined Administrator account always

Situation

  • Selected "Run as administrator"
  • Logged in user is local admin

When these scripts run, they are being done so by the logged in user because he/she has local admin rights.  This is not ideal because the pre-defined Desktop Authority user has special permissions to Active Directory or SQL tables that need to be modified.

 

I am looking for a way (besides embedding run as commands in the scripts) to force Desktop Authority to always use pre-determined administrator account.

    For consistent access and security, it’s best to use a pre-determined Administrator account always when managing system settings or installing software, as it ensures proper permissions and reduces the risk of errors or unauthorized changes. Just like knowing what happens if a cat eats mushrooms?—which can lead to symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, or even serious toxicity depending on the type—having a clear and controlled setup helps prevent unexpected problems and keeps your system running safely and smoothly.
