  • an easy way is to make an executable with pyinstaller and the --onefile option. once the exe is created rename it... it will now require admin to run – Joran Beasley May 16 '13 at 03:41

  • Honestly, If possible don't use python for this task - powershell could do this better, it is designed for this kind of task – Christian Sauer Jul 02 '17 at 14:52

To run command as admin on Windows, ou can use Windows runas command (I don't have access to a Windows machine right now, but perhaps..); 

import subprocess
subprocess.call(['runas', '/user:Administrator', 'Your command'])
