At the command prompt type the following line. You will need to be logged in with an account that has administrator privileges. So…how do we do that? In XP, 2000, Server 2003…you can do this very simply. Both of them run as the local system account. I have had to use this a few times while working with SMS 2003 and SCCM 2007. I need it to run as System…which has more rights…most of the time.

It doesn’t do me much good to troubleshoot that program if the program is running under my user account’s security context. Running a CMD prompt as System (XP/Vista/Win7/Win8)įrom time to time I have had a need to run a program in the context of the Local System account instead of my user account. Typically this is in troubleshooting a program…a program that runs as Local System.
