Community ManagerRepost: Make quick assist run as admin
Question:
We need to be able to use Quick Assist in Windows 10 to do some administrative tasks, but if the end user initiates the Quick Assist session then the remote admin is limited to only what...
If I can reach the end-user's computer physically and do the mentioned steps then why would I need quick assist?
I need to run it in administrator mode remotely without doing these steps physically on each end user's computer.

You can do everything in the Nov 30 2023 05:18 AM post using Quick Assist. You do not need physical access to the machine to do any of those steps.
Note the runas /user:.\Administrator cmd, which you run inside quick assist. That gives you an elevated prompt without physical access to the machine or needing to have the user click anything, and you can proceed to make the registry changes in quickassist as well, by following the other steps.
