Run Application As Admin?
Nov 22, 2010
I have the need to run my application as Administrator, preferably without prompting the user each time. I'd be ok with a one-time deal, but each time would get old
Application is writing some text files to a user-defined directory (which in some cases is a "protected" directory, like C:Directory). It's throwing all kinds of "Access Denied" errors at runtime.
Is there a registry entry I can insert at installation to escalate the application when ran? or escalate the UAC level in a config file somewhere?

on XP Pro, IsUserRole(eUserType.Administrator) returns true, if the class is administrator, and false if it's limited...
On Vista, it returns true, if it's the first administrator account, and false for anything else... I created a second administrator account on Vista, and it shows in code as "Standard" (or limited) user, the same as if I made a "Managed Account" on Vista...
My
#Region " [IsUserRole] "
Public Enum eUserType
Administrator = 0

I installed the program my self and tested it on Windows Vista, but it gives a lot of errors because it creates files into the application folder and it doesn't have admin rights. If I right click and select "Run As Admin" there are no problems of course, but It's not for private use...So I'm searching for a way to automaticly display the "Run As Admin" Dialog when I open my application,

I'm designing a system, whereby am unable to use 2 different login authorities, which are Admin and Non-Admin. I am using VB.NET and Ms. Access and need help for the codes.I want something like, if i click on admin/non admin (with different passwords) a dialog box pops onto the screen and asks for the password. If the password is correct it should take me to the form i want. Something of this sort please.

Im developing an application with Visual Basic 2005 and Oracle Database.It runs perfectly in my developing computer.When I am going to install it in the customer servers, I do it:
1. I install Oracle Database in a dedicated server with Windows 2003.
2. I install the Oracle Client, my application, Oracle Develop Tools for Windows and .NET Framework 2.0 in other dedicated server with Windows 2000.When in this second server, I login in Windows 2000 with "ADMIN" account, the aplication runs 100% perfectly, and oracle database too.
But the problem is : When an user try to connect to the second server without be "ADMIN", (So he's a simple user) the application runs but when it try to connect oracle an exception occurs (in the end of this message I put it).All folders of my application and oracle database have all permisions to all. What can be happen? This is the exception (sorry because its in spanish)[code].....

I am trying to build a self-updating .NET application that will run in an environment with limited user accounts. No admin rights here. The application must run on Vista and XP, and probably Win 7 when it comes out.An X-copy deployment would be fine. I would prefer NOT to use click-once.So far I have tried a system where the application checks a manifest and downloads updated binaries, which worked great in development, but not so much when the app was installed.Vista refuses to to let me copy files to Program Files. After that, I tried downloading an updated .msi, which works except that the MSI has a UAC prompt -- no go if the user does not have an account with local admin privileges.
running the program in AppData and using the x-copy method might work, but I have not seen anyone say that they have tried it and it did work. Will that work for an account without admin rights? Can anyone vouch for this method before I start writing more code?

Just a pretty question that seem to me a bit difficult to do it. Well, I have a form called customers. Login form and mainform. So my clients want to have an option that explains this: If a user enters information in the customer form, then that information has to be confirmed by admins panel.

I want to make my application automaticly restart itself to run as admin (the username is "admin" and the password is "friend" if it is not already) if it run in another session with a normal user.
I was already using this code:
Dim fag As Boolean
Function ConvertToSecureString(ByVal str As String)
Dim password As New SecureString
[Code].....
note that liberte.exe is the exe I wana run with admin mode, I bind it in the ressource, then drop it with this I just want to make my program able to run as admin by itself, not with another program. Is there a code to restart the apps if it detect that its not run as admin or maybe a fonction that "change" the user during a bit of instructions?

Starting another app as admin?

At the moment I'm working on an app that has a few buttons. I'd like to have one of those buttons launch an app (that will be included with the app I'm creating) as administrator. How do I do this? Is there a way to make it so that it can be run relative to my app (So it doesn't matter where my app is located, so long as the other app I'm trying to launch is in the same folder or a subfolder.)Also, I'd like to know if I could make it launch the other app with a sort of "virtual right click and run as admin". This app will only be used on Windows 7 and due to restrictions set on the PC's, you cannot run the apps just by double clicking on them. However, if you right click and select "run as administrator" the app runs, without any user input (ie. you have to put in the administrator's password). So in short, I'm looking to emulate this with code when a user clicks a button.

With Vista we are having a permission denied error when an application tries to change properties of a file in Program Data folder... before replacing with a newer version of the file.Changing of security permissions for a standard user is not an option. Is there a way we can grant the premissions for an application developed in VB .net to give permission only to change properties of this file.

I have made my app check for an update then if there is an update download the updated version and then close itself. But before it closes, it saves a text file with the startup location of itself. Then when the updated app opens it deletes the old app by getting the old app location from the text file.
but it will only delete the old app if it has admin rights. how can you start (compile) a app with admin right in vb 2008. how to compile app with admin rights.

Ok so here's the issue. I created a program that installs software that users select. I have my programs manifest set so that it will request Admin access to load in 7 and Vista if UAC is enabled (Since admin access is required to install software). I would like to give the user a option to start my program when windows starts but since the program requires admin access (UAC Promt) 7 and Vista will block it from starting. So my question is how could i trigger a (UAC promt) to elevate privileges on start up rather then in the manifest this is how CCleaner is able to be a start up program i believe.

I've got an asp.net assignment where I'm to create 7 user's in the ASP.Net Admin Tool but when I open it up and click the security tab I'm getting the following error message:"There is a problem with your selected data store..." problem is, I don't even know what a data store is and VS has never had me select one... any ideas how to fix this? All my Asp.net apps work fine on this computer.
I'm running VS 2008 on Win7 Home Premium x64 and I did install SQL Server 2008 Express last night in case it's needed.

I think this has to do with a third party OCX control. Below is the output when the application starts. When I install my application on a stand-alone PC or most PCs in a networked environment it runs fine. When I go to some offices that have very tightly controlled networks I have problems.
The set up won't run under the user name so someone from IT must log in as administrator. They run the set up and the application installs and runs fine. The IT person logs off and the user tries to run it and the application won't even start. An error box appears and below is the report. SCANNERLib.DLL is the third party control. Maybe there is something I'm missing when I compile. Maybe the DLL registering funny under the Admin rights. [Code]
