It might be weird for some people, my apologies, I am Linux developer... Tested:

    /// 

    /// Class that deals with another username credentials
    /// 
    class Credentials
    {
        /// 

        /// Constructor of SecureString password, to be used by RunAs
        /// 
        /// Plain password
        /// SecureString password
        private static SecureString MakeSecureString(string text)
        {
            SecureString secure = new SecureString();
            foreach (char c in text)
            {
                secure.AppendChar(c);
            }

            return secure;
        }

        /// 

        /// Run an application under another user credentials.
        /// Working directory set to C:\Windows\System32
        /// 
        /// Full path to the executable file
        /// Username of desired credentials
        /// Password of desired credentials
        public static void RunAs(string path, string username, string password)
        {
            try
            {
                ProcessStartInfo myProcess = new ProcessStartInfo(path);
                myProcess.UserName = username;
                myProcess.Password = MakeSecureString(password);
                myProcess.WorkingDirectory = @"C:\Windows\System32";
                myProcess.UseShellExecute = false;
                Process.Start(myProcess);
            }
            catch (Win32Exception w32E)
            {
                // The process didn't start.
                Console.WriteLine(w32E);
            }
        }

    }
