Hotkey to open cmd with administration rights in current folder from Explorer

Complete shortcuts are listed here Link to the answer

  1. Right-click Start & choose Command Prompt or Command Prompt (Admin) from the Quick Link menu. You can also use keyboard shortcuts for this route: Windows key + X, followed by C (non-admin) or A (admin).
  2. Type cmd in the search box, then press Enter to open the highlighted Command Prompt shortcut. To open the session as an administrator, press Alt+Shift+Enter.
  3. From File Explorer, click in the address bar to select its contents; then type cmd and press Enter. That opens a non-admin Command Prompt session in the current folder.
  4. In a File Explorer window, hold down Shift as you right-click on a folder or drive. That opens a non-admin Command Prompt session in the selected location.
  5. To open an administrative Command Prompt window in the current folder, use this hidden Windows 10 feature: Navigate to the folder you want to use, then hold Alt and type F, S, A (that keyboard shortcut is the same as switching to the File tab on the ribbon, then choose Open command prompt as administrator).
