MakeMeAnAdmin does not work anymore on macOS 12.3?

I've just tested on 12.3.1 and an M1 Mac. Not working for me either. I get the notification to say I have been granted admin rights, but shows as standard user even after a reboot.

I think this is due to the use of a Python script. Python 2has been removed from 12.3

if a script ran up to 12.3 and no longer runs under 12.3.1, it really smells a lot like the well-known python problem ;-)

Apple say they removed Python from 12.3, from what I have read. 

yes that's right, until now python 2.7 was installed - but if you install python 3 now, you don't make sure that the scripts will run again, they still have to be adjusted.

i'm facing the same problem like @ stevewood.

@stevewood i have a Question: the daemon doesn't survive a reboot right? but after reboot it triggers the daemon an do following: 

if [[ -f /private/var/userToRemove/user ]]; then
userToRemove=$(cat /private/var/userToRemove/user)
echo "Removing $userToRemove's admin privileges"
/usr/sbin/dseditgroup -o edit -d $userToRemove -t user admin
rm -f /private/var/userToRemove/user
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/removeAdmin.plist
rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/removeAdmin.plist
log collect --last 30m --output /private/var/userToRemove/$userToRemove.logarchive
fi
EOF

my Problem command rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/removeAdmin.plist doesn't get executed after reboot, do you know why? it hangs and every command after it doesn't be executed.

if [[ -f /private/var/userToRemove/user ]]; then
userToRemove=$(cat /private/var/userToRemove/user)
echo "Removing $userToRemove's admin privileges"
/usr/sbin/dseditgroup -o edit -d $userToRemove -t user admin
rm -f /private/var/userToRemove/user
launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/removeAdmin.plist
rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/removeAdmin.plist
log collect --last 30m --output /private/var/userToRemove/$userToRemove.logarchive
fi
EOF

If the LaunchDaemon has not run prior to a reboot it should still survive a reboot. The LaunchDaemon would reload on restart and the timer would be restarted. Meaning if a user were to elevate and restart the computer, the timer for demoting them would restart as well. If you had a timer of say 5 minutes and the user restarted at the 4 minute mark, then the user could theoretically get another 5 minutes of admin rights.

Hello everyone, how you're managing this on Sonoma/Sequoia? I couldn't make this script to work for me either.

Thanks

I am seeing an issues in 15.2. The user does not have sudo privileges after running the script. Works on my 15.1.1 machine.
