I'm writing a tweak utility that modifies some keys under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT . All works fine under Windows XP and so on. But I'm getting error Requested registry access is not allowed under Windows 7. Vista and 2008 I guess too. How should I modify my code to add UAC support? app.manifest should be like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <asmv1:assembly manifestVersion="1.0" xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" xmlns:asmv1="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" xmlns:asmv2="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"> <assemblyIdentity

Detect if running as Administrator with or without elevated privileges?

由 ⅰ亾dé卋堺 提交于 2019-11-26 04:03:55
I have an application that needs to detect whether or not it is running with elevated privileges or not. I currently have code set up like this: static bool IsAdministrator() { WindowsIdentity identity = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent(); WindowsPrincipal principal = new WindowsPrincipal(identity); return principal.IsInRole (WindowsBuiltInRole.Administrator); } This works to detect if a user is an administrator or not, but doesn't work if running as an administrator without elevation. (For example in vshost.exe). How can I determine whether or not elevation is [already in force or] possible ?

How do you de-elevate privileges for a child process

由 眉间皱痕 提交于 2019-11-26 03:58:08
问题 I know how to launch a process with Admin privileges from a process using: proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true; proc.StartInfo.Verb = \"runas\"; where proc is a System.Diagnostics.Process. But how does one do the opposite? If the process you\'re in is already elevated, how do you launch the new process without admin privileges? More accurately, we need to launch the new process with the same permission level as Windows Explorer, so no change if UAC is disabled, but if UAC is enabled, but

Can you force Visual Studio to always run as an Administrator in Windows 8?

由 房东的猫 提交于 2019-11-26 03:45:56
问题 In Windows 7, you could go into a programs compatibility settings and check off to always run as an Administrator. Is there a similar option in Windows 8? I\'ve always disabled UAC on my machines, and did the same after my Windows 8 upgrade, or so I thought. It turns out there is no off option, only turning off the notifications. This means nothing is run as an Administrator despite being in the Administrator group. I need to keep closing and reopening my consoles\\Visual Studio when I try to

Java: run as administrator

由 半城伤御伤魂 提交于 2019-11-26 03:16:43
问题 Is there a way in Java to ask the system to get control over administrator functionality. Of course without doing: Right click on the exe -> run as admin. What I want is that there comes a frame from UAC like in Windows Vista or Windows 7. Or have I to do some settings while making an exe from the jar? 回答1: You have to create a manifest file that specifies that your application needs administrator permissions. You can include the manifest in your exe or keep it as a separate file (yourapp.exe

Delphi: Prompt for UAC elevation when needed

由 六月ゝ 毕业季﹏ 提交于 2019-11-26 03:09:06
问题 We need to change some settings to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE at runtime. Is it possible to prompt for uac elevation if needed at runtime, or do I have to launch a second elevated process to do \'the dirty work\'? 回答1: i would relaunch yourself as elevated, passing command line parameters indicating what elevated thing you want to do. You can then jump right to the appropriate form, or just save your HKLM stuff. function RunAsAdmin(hWnd: HWND; filename: string; Parameters: string): Boolean; { See

问题 I am writing an HTTP server in C#. When I try to execute the function HttpListener.Start() I get an HttpListenerException saying \"Access Denied\". When I run the app in admin mode in windows 7 it works fine. Can I make it run without admin mode? if yes how? If not how can I make the app change to admin mode after start running? using System; using System.Net; namespace ConsoleApplication1 { class Program { private HttpListener httpListener = null; static void Main(string[] args) { Program p

How to elevate privileges only when required?

问题 This question applies to Windows Vista! I have an application which normally works without administrative privileges. There is one activity which does need administrative privilege but I don\'t want to start the application itself with higher privileges when I know most of time user wont even be using that feature. I am thinking about certain method by which I can elevate the privileges of application on some event (such as press of a button). Example: If user clicks this button then he is
