in the next 6 months local admin rights will be removed and I’d like to find a way to make my utility run as the built in administrator so that the helpdesk does not need to login as their higher privilege account to perform these actions. Wrapping it in an exe was the easiest way (I think) for our org as we have group polices restricting powershell scripts unless they’re made on the machine they are running on. I have written a utility for our L1 and L2 helpdesk to help them in accomplishing tasks when users call, things such as storing the bitlocker key in Active Directory, running the windows KMS for licensing, checking for specific software/services that are security requirements and if they’re not found to install them.

I am currently using Microsoft Visual Studio code and then using PS2EXE GUI to wrap the script into an executable. Hey folks, I am currently looking at Sapien PowerShell Studio : īe able to create an exe or msi with a code signing certificate (from my org).Ībility to build credentials into the exe or msi (exe or msi would run as a user).
