I have 2 users:

- Domain\Me (domain user)

- .\MeAdmin (local administrator)

I frequently have to update my registry for multiple purposes (IE trusted sites, override policies, etc.).

e.g.

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\gov.pt]
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\gov.pt\portaldasfinancas]
    "https"=dword:00000001
    "http"=dword:00000001

My problem lies with the fact that have been told that I cannot make myself (domain account) local admin, I have to use an independent local admin account for all administrator tweaks.

The thing is, if I run this as user .\MeAdmin, it will run current user of MeAdmin and not user Domain\Me; if I run as Domain\Me, I will bump into permissions wall.

Is there a way to assign Domain\Me permissions to edit registry without being Administrator, or update current user of that account through local admin?

Note: I've read about remote registry connections, but I was hoping to still run this as a script/shell for automation purposes.
