Editing the Windows 7 hosts file

Hi people,

I'm still over the problem of handling mobile wsus clients.
In the meantime I would like to change the hosts file. In Windows 7 with the UAC (User Access Control) it's not quite simple changing the file like in Windows XP, you have to use a workaround.

At first you have to start the editor with administrator privileges. Then you can open it in this directory:
%systemroot%\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

Do the changes you want to do and save the file through file - save.

This will work

Have fun

Regards
