No, just admin, which we could already do by running CMD as admin.

Then it's fucking useless and that IS NOT sudo.

Reverse engineer denuvo and other kernel-level anti-cheat gaming software and use those methods to write a real sudo command.

It's already been done, it's called PowerRun.

Nothing special about it, it just runs everything you load into it as TrustedInstaller or SYSTEM.

I am Jack's extremely surprised brain 🤨.. I share Windows Update Blocker by the same company (well... sorta... I don't think they're a real company) and I constantly get backlash "it's not open source, god knows what it's doing in the background!", even though I have analyzed the binary (to an extent) and never noticed anything malicious about it (and I have shared this as well with the community). BUT, I share this (also closed source) and people thank me 🤨? WTF 🤨...
