Script for creating / modifying key in reg-editor?
MakeMeAdmin's wiki contains a document on [User Account Control (UAC) settings](https://github.com/pseymour/MakeMeAdmin/wiki/UAC-Settings) and, towards the bottom, you'll see `EnableLUA` which this app designates enabling the setting as a requirement. For what it's worth, I build our Windows 10/11 Golden Images for my employer (~12,500 devices) and each image I build is required to pass a pen-test. Having `EnableLUA` instantly disqualifies the image and fails the pen-test. I'm not sure exactly what it does but I'd hesitate to enable this setting globally throughout my organization.

Newby question regarding Regerstry-Editor and Key-creation
Hey guys, I apologize because it's probably a dumb question but im new in the sysadmin world (started the apprenticeship earlier this year) and was tasked by my boss to implement an app called Make Me Admin (https://github.com/pseymour/MakeMeAdmin) into our Azure and write a powershell script that, when executed, would install it and also change the setting of the app to grant the user admin rights for 60 minutes instead of the default 10 minutes.
