Hey everyone! I'm in a bit of a puzzling situation and could really use your advice. I've got some servers that I need to monitor constantly, and I can only access them through a web portal with my user account. I've installed RSAT, but the problem is, when I try to enable it through the Windows Optional Features, it just doesn't work properly. Switching between my user and admin accounts pauses the enabling process, so it won't continue in the background. Since I only have tokens for login and not a local account, I'm not sure how to elevate my user privileges to enable these settings. I initially thought about using an elevated Command Prompt to access the optional features, but even then, it just opens it as a user. I also considered using the runas command, but can't find a way to do that with a non-local admin account. Any insights or tips would be hugely appreciated!

Have you thought about installing RSAT directly via PowerShell? I recently did that and it worked well for me. You can find a guide on how to install it using PowerShell - it might save you some hassle!
I tried using the commands, and I could see the RSAT tool listed, but unfortunately, the commands didn’t enable the specific tool I want, which is WSUS. Seems like the wildcard argument isn’t doing the trick either.
