Problem
Currently when running the script as non-admin user, the invokation of
diskpart
shows the Windows UAC dialog where we can input the admin user credentials for elevating the process, but piping diskpart commands to that process does not work. The diskpart commandline windows stays open and does nothing.How to reproduce
diskpart
line a new credentials window will pop updiskpart
window can be openedSolution
Using script mode instead solves this problem.
