Type of Change
Description
What changed:
Added a new tweak to the Essential Tweaks section that allows users to enable the native
sudocommand built into Windows 11.Why it was changed:
Windows 11 introduced native
sudofunctionality (starting with Insider Build 26045 and publicly in 24H2). This PR allows users to easily enable it through WinUtil rather than having to install third-party binaries (likegsudo).Implementation Details:
HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SudoValue: 3so thatsudoexecutes in Inline mode (resembling the familiar Linux experience in the same console window).OriginalValueis correctly set to<RemoveEntry>so that undoing the tweak fully restores the system to factory defaults (since older Windows 11 builds don't have this registry key).(Win 11 24H2+)to prevent confusion for users on older Windows 10/11 versions.docs\content\dev\tweaks\Essential-Tweaks\EnableSudo.md.
