superUser is a simple and lightweight utility to start any process with TrustedInstaller privileges.
The program acquires the Trusted Installer's Process' handle and creates a new (user-specified) process attributing Trusted Installer as its parent.
There are two ways to run the program:
Double click the executable, grant admin privileges and wait for a command prompt to appear.
Simply run superUser from the command prompt (preferably one with admin privileges) using the following arguments:
Option | Meaning |
---|---|
/h | Display the help message. |
/v | Verbose. Display progress info. |
/w | Wait for the created process to exit. Used for scripts. |
/c | Used to specify the command to run. Without it cmd is started. |
Note: You can also use a dash (-) in place of the slash (/) in commands.
Exit Code | Meaning |
---|---|
1 | Invalid argument |
2 | Failed acquiring SeDebugPrivilege |
3 | Could not open/start the TrustedInstaller service |
4 | Process creation failed (prints error code) |
