When I power on my PC, I need the command prompt to launch with admin privileges and run netsh wlan start hostednetwork. Doing it each time feels tedious.

Create a script to prompt for admin rights and execute the desired command. Ensure UAC is enabled if you want to bypass restrictions.

tartup and press enter. Transfer the file there. You might also consider setting up a scheduled task, though that requires more steps. Edited May 13, 2018 by wkdpaul

In open notepad, type the instructions and save as a text file with the name matching the pattern you suggested. It should be something like StartHotspot.bat. Make sure to enable viewing file extensions. Then relocate it to the startup directory. Launch the Run dialog (Win+R), enter shell Confused tartup and press enter. Transfer the file there.

I forgot about the file extension earlier. It was something my friend mentioned before, and now I realized I needed to include it.

Configure it as a Windows Event through Task Scheduler, and it will execute with the necessary system access without prompting for elevated privileges.
