Command Prompt and Windows PowerShell are also simple and built-in options covered in this post for this purpose. We have already seen how to open a file or folder using Command Prompt or PowerShell.

Open PowerShell, then copy and paste the following script and hit Enter. Be sure to replace 'J:\OrganizeDownloadsFolder.ps1 ' with the full file path to your OrganizeDownloadsFolder.ps1 script.

An elevated PowerShell prompt will now open. You can tell it is elevated as the starting directory will be C:\Windows\System32 and the window title will be 'Administrator: Windows PowerShell'.

With the Terminal, Windows has a common interface for Powershell, Command Prompt, and Azure Cloud Shell. This allows you to start the terminal directly with the command prompt.
