I must be having a dull moment. I know how to shift+right click and get a command prompt. I'd like an elevated one the same way?

Shift+control+right click on a folder and choose open command window.

Add these keys:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas]
@="Open elevated command window here"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
 
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\runas\command]
@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""

Nice. What's the Extended and NoWorkingDirectory for? I get the quoting issues and push/pop of the path.
