Comment on We'll probably never see a Grand Theft Auto set in a futuristic city like GTA 2 because the team "hated it": "People didn’t connect with the game or its city"

I remember figuring out how to make my account an admin account in like Windows 2k through some obscure setting that was still available. We stared with weird flash games in the library, and eventually played unreal tournament.

Was that the sticky keys trick? That was a fun one to use to elevate

  No. What the heck? You can/could have used sticky keys to elevate account access??? What?

    Yeah, so back in the day, you could replace the accessibility executable that launches when you hit shift 5 times to enable sticky keys, and is launch as a privileged process. Rename it and copy cmd to the old exe name, hit shift 5 times and you now have an admin console.
    
    Still works today, you just have to do it offline if you’re not an admin.
