superUser

As a power-user, you are likely to encounter situations when you need to perform various administrative tasks that require elevated privileges. You are likely to rely on the icacls command so that you can modify and manage permissions for files and folders.

superUser is a tool that makes the entire process simple and straightforward, as it opens a console window that can start any process with TrustedInstaller privileges.

The idea behind the tool is to provide you access to system resources and perform tasks that are restricted to the built-in TrustInstaller account. You will be able to modify system files, change file attributes and execute commands with elevated privileges, among others.

The utility packs numerous tools to help with file and folder management, including the file system. More precisely, you can perform operations such as copying files using Robocopy, modifying file attributes, comparing files to identify differences, and searching for specific text strings within files. Moreover, it can convert FAT file systems to NTFS, the exception being the current volume.

You can create directories and symbolic links so that you can organize data better and have references and improved accessibility across different locations within the system.

Thanks to this tool, you can easily get access to Windows environmental variables, allowing you to view and modify them as needed. Not only does this enable you to customize the OS behavior, but it can come in handy in configuring settings for certain applications as well.

Another feature worth mentioning is that you can manage file sharing and learn more about various documents opened by remote users. Consequently, you can identify potential conflicts and address them accordingly.
