:closed_lock_with_key: Command-line privilege elevation for Windows

elevate

MIT licensed Build Status cppcheck badge

Simple command-line tool to run executables that require elevated privileges on Windows.

Think node-runas but as a standalone tool, or jpassing/elevate but that compiles on MinGW and is continuously getting built by our CI server.

Used by itch to run some installers on Windows.
