问题 I have this application that need to do some things in protected paths (like %PROGRAMFILES%), I know that I should be using %APPDATA%, but I can't change that for now. I have isolated all the things that could require UAC to show up on another project, here's a sample code: using System; using System.Diagnostics; using System.IO; using System.Windows.Forms; class Class1 { static void Main(string[] args) { try { File.CreateText(Path.Combine(Application.StartupPath, "something.txt")); } catch

How to make the setup.exe from a VS2010 Setup Project ask for Admin Privileges?

由 ぐ巨炮叔叔 提交于 2019-12-08 12:48:41
问题 I have a problem which I guessed would be really simple to solve... but duh. I'm deploying a .NET application with VS2010. I have a C# Windows Forms project and a Deployment Project. I need the installer to run with admin privileges because the app is installed for all users and an entry to the registry is made. When starting the setup.exe I'm not prompted for privilege elevation. The installer will just start and suggest to install to Program Files (x86) which is good. After clicking next

Change a registry value in VB.NET

问题 I have searched a lot to find a solution for my problem, but I can't find any specific solution. I need to change a value which is stored under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\APP_NAME . It is not possible to use .NET's registry functions, since they have drastic restrictions. The following snippet should solve my problem: Dim regKey As RegistryKey Dim ver As Decimal regKey = My.Computer.Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\APP_NAME", True) regKey.SetValue("IP", "192.168

Inno Setup does not popup UAC prompt on Windows XP with PrivilegesRequired=none

问题 In Inno Setup I do PrivilegesRequired=none . This setting should prompt the UAC, if the user has Administrative privileges. On some computers of Windows XP the UAC doesn't get prompted even though the Administrator is logged in, I verified this by checking the IsAdminLoggedOn setting and I saw that it was set to True . Why is this happening? 回答1: If IsAdminLoggedOn returns True , the installer is already running with Administrator privileges ("elevated"). Note that there's no privileges

How to execute “net use” command from Inno Setup installer on Windows 7?

问题 I'm working on an Inno Setup installer, which calls net use to connect to a shared server. The installer can connect to the server, if it's running on Windows XP, but not on Windows 7. I think it's related to UAC as I type the same command, the server is connected on Windows 7, but the setup is running with admin privileges. I'm using the following net use command through Exec or ShellExec script functions: /c net use \\servername password /user:username Actually, here is a part of the script

How to use SetWindowsHookEx in Vista and hook Admin apps with UAC?

由 时间秒杀一切 提交于 2019-12-08 01:38:28
问题 I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to use SetWindowsHookEx and be able to affect apps that are run with Admin rights on Vista, with UAC enabled. This is an app that will need to add a small button to the caption bar of other windows to enable some multi-monitor-aware handling. I would have thought this couldn't be done, but I've seen one app that appears to do this. As far as I can tell, this other apps is not being run with Admin rights, and yet it can affect all apps in the system,
