Setting WireGuard Client for non administrative accounts

To make the WireGuard windows app better (for non-admin users) you need to make your user(s) a member of the “Network Configuration Operators” group.

This allows you enable/disable (or choose if you have multiple) the VPN without needing to be a member of the Administrators group. You also need to add a line to the registry.

Here's the powershell code to do that:

New-ItemProperty "hklm:\software\wireguard" -Name "LimitedOperatorUI" -Value 1 -PropertyType "DWord" -Force
Add-LocalGroupMember -Group "Network Configuration Operators" -Member "$username"
