Changing Admin Command Prompt to Require Password
Admin Command Prompt, also known as elevated Command Prompt, allows users to execute commands with elevated privileges. By default, when you open the Admin Command Prompt, it does not require a password. However, for enhanced security, you can configure it to prompt for a password each time it is accessed.
Steps to Change Admin Command Prompt to Require Password:
- Open the Command Prompt by searching for 'cmd' in the Windows search bar.
- Right-click on Command Prompt and select 'Run as administrator'.
- Once Command Prompt is open, type 'net user [your username] *' and press Enter.
- You will be prompted to enter a new password. Type your desired password and press Enter.
- Confirm the new password by entering it again when prompted.
- After successfully changing your password, the Admin Command Prompt will now require a password for access.
It is essential to regularly update and change passwords to maintain security on your system. By following these steps, you can add an extra layer of protection to your Admin Command Prompt.
