administrator

I'm trying to add a key to LocalMachine in registry. I'm using this code: System.Diagnostics.Debugger.Launch(); RegistryKey key = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("SOFTWARE", true); RegistryKey newkey = key.CreateSubKey("1asdasds", RegistryKeyPermissionCheck.ReadWriteSubTree); newkey.SetValue("ads", "ddsds"); newkey.Close(); I DO run it on Administrator account. I event run it with 'run as administrator", but nothing is added to registry :(. When I change the LocalMachine to CurrentUser , actually it is added to CurrentUser key. But how to force it to be added to LocalMachine? Got it. Actually

I am developing an application that runs as a windows service. I really need the service to have administrator privileges. I tried with the LocalSystem user, and it does not have enough rights. Is this possible? I tried setting requireAdministrator in the app.config. When I do this, the service starts and then immediately stops. I have tried with other administrator accounts as well, but I get the same results. You just need to run it as an admin user - set the login correctly in the services properties for the service. Usually though it's best to run as an ordinary user and give it explicit

My app uses ClickOnce tehcnology. Today I needed to run it as administrator. I modified the manifest file from <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false" /> to <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" /> However VS cannot compile the project: Error 35 ClickOnce does not support the request execution level 'requireAdministrator'. I think it's impossible to use them at once. Isn't it? I need to change the system time, can I do that in application level? Can I emulate it, so app. can do what I want. I change time +2 hours then put back for a second.

I compiled it to an executable, but to open it I have to right-click and press "Run as administrator". I want it to request admin privileges each time I run it, but how to do it? I can't do this: Because then it doesn't work when I copy it to a second computer. Try adding this to the auto-execute section (top of the script): ; If the script is not elevated, relaunch as administrator and kill current instance: full_command_line := DllCall("GetCommandLine", "str") if not (A_IsAdmin or RegExMatch(full_command_line, " /restart(?!\S)")) { try ; leads to having the script re-launching itself as

Does full trust mean the same as Run As Administrator? I have read things stating that "for this to work, the application must be a full-trust application." Is that the same as you must have administrator privileges to run the application? If not, what's the difference? How can you tell if an app is "full-trust"? I am told that "Administrator or not, .Net apps won't do certain things if they aren't running from a 'trusted' location." What is a "trusted location"? If you run an app from a "trusted location", can you do things that "require full-trust" without being an administrator? No. Full

I have a kiosk app and want to run it at startup. The problem here is that when I put Registry value to open it at startup, it doesn't open program as Administrator and so that program doesn't work probably. I'm using Windows 7. Can anyone help me with code to run it as Administrator? Some programs (such as anit-viruses and the viruses themselves) work as Administrator at startup WITHOUT ASKING THE USER TO ACCEPT RUNNING AS ADMINISTRATOR, that's exactly I want to do. Any help is very thanked. To run a application at startup, you can either: Run it as a scheduled task, set the credentials to

I have an application that writes program settings to the windows registry that is absolutely necessary so.storing to a file is not an option. To simplify this, I would like to give an "admin privileges" nag screen instead of trying to explain how to right click on the program file/short cut. I found a reasonably good article but I receive a duplicate resource error after adding my own resource file for the manifest. This is supposedly due to a conflict with the internal manifest and to resolve the issue I see a lot of comments suggesting "enable runtime themes" to be disabled in project

I'm writing a client/server checking program but it needs to run as Administrator. I want this to run silently on my network and users, and I don't want the "Run as" Administrator" prompt. Is there any beginning code that I can place into the batch file to make it auto-run as Administrator? zenin Solutions that did not work No: The - create a shortcut [ -> Compatibility -> "run this program as an administrator" ] solution does not work. This option is greyed out in Windows 7. Even with UAC disabled No: The runas /env /user:domain\Administrator <program.exe/command you want to execute> is also
