Issue: "Error: Unable to connect to the elevated service." when using Admin By Request Tool from Windows Terminal #141
Comments
Hi, |
Tried to create a ticket to FastTrack Software, but unfortunately |
I was able to reproduce the problem taking gsudo out of the equation. So, this is caused by Please take a look at the screenshot. You will see that if you do I tweeted to @AdminByRequest. Let's hope they get the bug report. |
Thanks a lot. I've forwarded the case to our support department - they should be able to make a ticket at AdminByRequest. |
Just came here to rant about what a terrible uninstall experience that tool provides. It refuses to uninstall and provides no instructions. Also f*** up my user and removed admin rights from it, without even warning me. I just had a secondary admin account by chance, otherwise would have to hack myself to recover my machine. I'm closing this issue since it is an external problem. |
Hi @JensGJ, did you had any luck reporting this to ABR? what was their response? |
Hi Gerado. Long story short:
The first time I reported the issue (on Windows 10), it was fixed with an update of Admin By Request.
The second time - after upgrade to Windows 11 - was stuck in our local support since they were not able to reproduce the error.
So unfortunately I don't use gsudo on my workstation. It works fine on our servers (but this is also without Admin By Request and without Windows Terminal).
Med venlig hilsen

Thank you so much for your response Jens. |
Issue Description
Gsudo works perfect both with Windows PowerShell (5.1.19041.1682) and PowerShell Core (7.2.5) - as long as they are running in their own windows. When running either of them through Windows Terminal, I get the error Unable to connect to the elevated service
Steps to Reproduce
Screenshots
Context:
Opening for admin access in that tool before running gsudo does not make a difference (and outside Windows Terminal gsudo also works fine without the need for requesting admin access from Admin By Request).
