How to compile program that will launch an exe as administrator [duplicate]

Answer 1

Just so you know, Microsoft already provides a command line utility to run programs as a different user, including administrator: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/runas.mspx?mfr=true

You could create a shortcut that executes RunAs, with the appropriate command line parameters and your program would execute, in one click.
