On Windows it's easy to run cmd
application as administrator:
Right click on cmd icon >> run as administrator`
But I would like to use PhpStorm terminal
tool as administrator since I constantly have to execute queries that require administrator role.
When I open:
File >> Settings >> Tools >> Terminal
I can see that it is directly connected to cmd.exe
and there are options to be filled:
And I see no checkbox with choice to run it as administrator.
QUESTIONS
There are no options in IDE for that at the moment (to run cmd.exe
with higher rights).
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-121335 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified on any progress.
Your only option for now (that I'm aware of) is running IDE itself as administrator -- Process Hacker confirms that both IDE and cmd.exe will be run with elevated rights.
P.S. For one time execution (or if you need to run IDE as normal user) -- have a look at this question and offered solutions: How to open an elevated cmd using command line for Windows?
