      Everytime i try to use it, even for simple things, i have to close my current session and reopen as administrator.

      Just always run as admin.

          On Linux, I can use sudo pwsh to have admin privileges when using PowerShell.

          # Admin Privileges
          sudo pwsh
          
          # Non-Admin Privileges
          pwsh

            Yeah, a little silly that it is actually easier to use on Linux, in that sense.

                @jaredbusch Is that considered slow? 40 minutes for 26 miles would be best traffic since the 1990s here.

                  Oh man, after yesterday's posts, just wait, you're going to get it!

                  No he isn't going to "get it" you're the person being a dumbass in yesterdays case. @momurda understands the issue, whereas you're refusing to take what I told you as a fact because of your inexperience administering windows.

                    You didn't tell me anything. We weren't discussing Windows, we were discussing the value of a blank video. You are just making up that I even responded about the Windows issue other than to point out over and over that I wasn't talking about it.

                      And again, you're skipping facts. . . Clearly the video isn't blank, it goes blank for the 6 seconds I'm typing credentials into a UAC prompt.

                        I think you've always had to run an elevated session of PowerShell to run update-help.

                          Sorry, just focusing on the relevant bit. The bit with the timing that was the only purpose of the video is blank.

                          How obtuse can you be? This is SO simple. The video is useless. Admit it, move on instead of trying to blame other people for random things just bceause you failed to make a point.

                              Because nothing you said is correct. UAC doesn't blank out video, there is a really trivial way to show this stuff (like I said.) Basically, when I say that Windows is easy you claim I'm an idiot and dont' know Windows and say that you can't show this stuff for whatever reason. I also point out that the timing isn't shown and you ignore the fundamental fact that you didn't show any useful timing. Everything you said, from UAC keeping the screen from being recorded, to the PS being fast (we think) to how long it takes to do, to what the video shows, was wrong.

                              If you wanted to show how fast PS is, you'd have done something like this, which was no effort at all and shows four seconds AFTER a UAC...

                                Now do you see why I'm confused by your belief that Windows can't be shown, and why a blank screen doesn't tell us anything?

                                  The entire basis for you saying I don't know Windows was because I was an idiot because I didn't know that you coudln't record someone typing in their UAC creds.

                                    Without UAC, PS takes two seconds. Not horrible, but not all that fast. Better than I typically see, but I normally only see it with UAC as @momurda pointed out.

                                          @rojoloco I have a significant doorway problem. PS on many of the machines that I support takes long enough to open that I forget what I was working on. When your desktop clicks take that long, it sounds trivial, but you have to shift from what you were doing to waiting or doing something while you wait, it's very disruptive and not at all productive. And if you check the one I tested, it was over twelve seconds. And often it's slow enough that individual key presses have noticeable delay, it makes even just normal typing hard to do.
