Setting Up WireGuard for Non-Admin Users on Windows

To allow non-administrative users to configure WireGuard on Windows, we need to make some changes in the system registry and adjust local group permissions. This ensures that even users without admin rights can manage network configurations securely.

Below is a consolidated command box that contains all the necessary steps. This will make it easy for users to follow along without needing to execute multiple commands separately.

REG ADD HKLM\Software\WireGuard /V LimitedOperatorUI /T REG_DWORD /D 1 /F
NET LOCALGROUP "Network Configuration Operators" <username> /ADD

Explanation:

• Step 1: Modify the Registry
  The first command modifies the registry to enable WireGuard's Limited Operator UI mode, allowing non-admin users restricted access to the WireGuard user interface.

  • HKLM\Software\WireGuard: This is the registry path where the change is applied.
  • /V LimitedOperatorUI: Specifies the registry value name we're adding or modifying.
  • /T REG_DWORD: Defines the type of value, which is a 32-bit number in this case.
  • /D 1: Sets the value to 1, enabling the limited operator UI mode.
  • /F: Forces the change without prompting for confirmation.

• Step 2: Add User to Network Configuration Operators Group
  The second command adds the specified user to the "Network Configuration Operators" group, allowing them to modify network configurations.

  • NET LOCALGROUP: Manages local group memberships.
  • "Network Configuration Operators": The group that allows members to modify network settings.
  • <username>: Replace this with the actual username you want to add.
  • /ADD: Adds the specified user to the group.

Replace <username> with the actual username you wish to grant network configuration permissions.

These steps will allow a non-admin user to access and configure WireGuard with limited privileges, ensuring both usability and security.
