I love using gsudo[0] for this. It doesn't support running as TrustedInstaller (AFAIK), but when I run into a command that requires elevated permissions, I just prepend `sudo` at the beginning, and it elevates the current shell (without a new window) and lets me run the command.

    PS> choco upgrade deno
    Chocolatey detected you are not running from an elevated command shell
    
    ^C
    
    PS> sudo choco upgrade deno
