administrator

I have installed Visual Studio 2008 and am running it as a non-Administrator user. I have a Web Application project I am developing and would like to debug it using Visual Studio. I can compile and also debug with "Visual Studio Development Server" without problems. But, when I select "Use Local IIS Web server" in my project properties and try to save the project, Visual Studio gives me the error: "To access local IIS Web sites, you must run Visual Studio in the context of an administrator account." Now, if I take Microsoft's word, I must run Visual Studio by actually using an administrative

I am running Windows 7 Pro and working on a Java application in Eclipse. I need Eclipse to send user-specified commands (such as 'chkdsk C:') to the command prompt and then output to the console in Eclipse whatever the command prompt would have printed. I have the sending commands working and the receiving text back. However, when I to run chkdsk I need to have admin privileges for the command session. I see from the thread here: Java: run as administrator that one way to do this is through a .manifest file. However, I am having trouble understanding how to create a manifest file for Java:

When creating a setup/MSI with Visual Studio is it possible to make a setup for a simple application that doesn't require administrator permissions to install? If its not possible under Windows XP is it possible under Vista? For example a simple image manipulation application that allows you to paste photos on top of backgrounds.

The objective is to create an application which will install for users who are not members of the administrators group on the local

I have a local user, which is member of Administrators local group. When I run this code: using System; using System.DirectoryServices; namespace nanttest { class Program { public static void Main(string[] args) { using(DirectoryEntry entry = new DirectoryEntry("IIS://localhost/W3SVC")) { object absobject = entry.NativeObject; Console.WriteLine("Name: {0}", entry.Name); } Console.Write("Press any key to continue . . . "); Console.ReadKey(true); } } } I receive: Unhandled Exception: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80070005): Access is denied. at System.DirectoryServices

I have a visual studio setup and deployment project. I've added a .cmd script in it. The script would need administrator privileges to run. When user clicks on the setup.exe, UAC prompts the user for Admin permissions. So I assumed that all processes created and called within setup.exe will run in admin capacity. So I made the setup call my console application which contains the following code. ProcessStartInfo p1 = new ProcessStartInfo(); p1.UseShellExecute = true; p1.Verb = "runas"; p1.FileName = "cmd.exe"; Process.Start(p1); So it should've worked as it's run under administrator space. I
