Hello, I am looking for help to be able to run the cursor terminal in administrator mode
Hey, the simplest way to get Cursor terminals to have admin permissions is to run the whole app as an Admin.
In Windows, you can tick a box in the .exe properties to always run it as admin. In a UNIX OS, you can probably make a small bash script that runs sudo cursor
to run the app as sudo, and the terminals will follow the same permissions.
Without the app running as admin, Cursor doesn’t have the permissions to make an admin terminal.
When I ran cursor as administrator, the terminals were not in administrator mode because I need them for powershell that’s why I opened a ticket on the forum
As long as Cursor is running in Administrator mode, all the terminals it creates should have the same permissions.
I’ve just tested this myself and my Powershell terminals had administrator access once Cursor was ran as admin.
What isn’t working in your Powershell terminal that suggests that it’s not running as an admin?
