• File Start-Elevated.ps1 — part of check-in [2a216948a1] at 2018-06-10 12:59:38 on branch trunk — A simple function based on http://www.peterprovost.org/archive/2007/02/25/22315.aspx to launch a process elevated — basically, this is the UAC equivalent of sudo (and therefore, will almost always require you to at least click OK).
