C# - Elevation Without Restarting An Application?
Jul 14, 2009
Has anyone managed to get administration rights through the UAC without restarting the application or embedding a manifest file?
I'd like to write to some files that only administrators can modify, without relying to another elevated application. Is it possible to impersonate an administrator previously calling with some native API the UAC prompt?
I guess this is not possible and I'll have to use an external tool with elevated rights, but I'm asking just in case.
EDIT: I know there are some other similar questions around, but since they do not cover the topic of impersonation (as fas as I've seen), nor some possible native call to the UAC prompt I decided to give a new thread a go...

I have created a 2008 Visual Basic.NET application I'm using on Windows 7 that requires elevation. In myapplication I used the UAC manifest in VS 2008 to makere elevation. that works fine with a regular 2008 VB.NET form and will remember the form postion.On my application (really just a form) that requires elevation it will not save the position and always starts in the upper left of the screenDoes anyone know a way around this on an application created that requires elevation

I developed a chat application with an attendant chat server. Everything is working fine. The issue now is the fact that whenever the chat server goes down (for instance, the server system shuts down as a result of power failure or some other problem), by the time the server system come back on, the chat server would have to be restarted manually.
I believe (and I know) it is more appropriate for the chat server application to restart itself when the computer comes back on (and of course regardless of who is logged in and of course, even before anyone logs in). I have a batch file that executes the chat server. My attempt was to create a windows service that start automatically and runs this batch file using a Network Service account on the server system. Although, I'm having a hard time with this (temporarily), I would love to ask if there are any alternatives to using a windows service.

I have an application that creates files at certain directories, deploys them and then removes them when neccessary. Under Windows Vista and 7, access for my program to carry out such commands are denied because UAC is blocking it.Now i am NOT using Visual Studio, i am using SharpDevelop and my project is a Windows Form. How can i prompt the user with the UAC dialogue so my application can acquire UAC elevation and carry out its tasks?I would also like to point out that everything works perfectly when UAC is either turned off or the user runs my program with Administrator Rights.

I have an ActiveX EXE that is compiled with VB6, unfortunately because it exposes an ActiveX interface it refuses to run unless i embedd a manifest file into it requesting elevation priviliges of administrator.This in turn has the side effect of VISTA prompting the user to logon as administrator each time they run the application.The admin on site has already refused to disable UAC.Is there any way for either our application or the administrator to auto-elevate the program on the domain?

My work is, I have a DEM file and header file of it.Now, I want to display the elevation value from the DEM file of the given Longitude and Latitude.And, I worked on it before,Where I could get the elevation value with the resolution matrix of 6000x4800 and I can able to read the elevation value.But, now I want to modify in such a way that I should read the elevation values from the DEM file with the resolution matrix of 11x11.So, kindly guide me in getting the elevation value with resolution of 11x11 matrix.The code I have used before to display the elevation value with resolution of 6000x4800 are:

I need to display or get the elevation value of a given latitude and longitude from the DEM file in 11x11 matrix array.Actually I have a DEM file and corresponding HDR file of it.And, the DEM file is 6000x4800 Matrix with 57600000 data's.Now, I worked with some codes where I can able to get the elevation of a Given latitude and longitude.But, When I Zoom IN or OUT,the Latitude and Longitude values changes so,when I pass the changed latitude and Longitude value,I could not able to get the elevation value.The reason is,
In the 6000x4800 matrix the Resolution of the X and Y is large,so when we Zoom IN or OUT the resolution changes and could not display the elevation value.But, where as if we get the elevation values in 11x11 matrix array,since it has 121 data's only, the resolution value will be small and even when we Zoom IN or OUT and pass the changed Latitude and Longitude, we could able to get the elevation.[code]....

I've made an application that is meant to be run without administrator privileges in Windows Vista / 7, because UAC disables drag and drop events from lower applications into higher ones, because they could pass bad information into the high trust ones [for example, standard explorer cannot pass files into my program that a user might run in administrator].

I have an application which has a thread running which makes constant calls to a server. Occasionally, the calls become unresponsive, and I would like to stop and then restart the thread.How do I do this? I can't use mythread.Abort() because then it doesn't allow me to start the thread again.

I've a website that puts info into a mySQL database and a windows service (written in VB.Net) that polls the db and actions what's in there.However, occasionally it stalls and rather than having to RDP into the server, I want superusers to click on a button to restart the service.I can get the button to say, do a directory listing of c: output to a test file so the whole 'getting a command to execute on a remote server' issue works. However, I can't restart services.I assume this is a security thing (although it has full rights to c: I thought I'd sussed that already).The website runs under the normal IUSR_user so am I doing something really stupid or can someone explain how to get the service to be restarted ?

I want to know how can I restart a terminated thread?I have a 3 buttons (Button1: Start/Resume, Button2: Pause, Button3: Cancel) code like this;
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If (CrawlerThread.ThreadState And ThreadState.Unstarted) <> 0 Then
CrawlerThread.Start()
CrawlerThread.IsBackground = True
Else
CrawlerThread.Resume()
[Code]...
When I click to Button1 it starts to thread, then If I click to Button2 it stops as well then I click to Button1 again to resume it. All these processes works fine. But when I click to Button3 for terminating to thread, yeah It works, after that If I click to Button1 to start it again It gets a error: "Thread is not running; it cannot be resumed."

I am in the process of developing a messaging framework for a windows application that sends messages to a java application. To be precise when the win app wants to send a message it simply drops the message in a common database table which will be picked up by the java app. The windows application is deployed across 10 application servers (10 instances) over citrix for load balancing.Each instance of the application is capable of sending a message to the java application and each of these messages should have a unique id. From my end I need to make sure every message generated has to carry a unique id so that they can be identified when necessary. All the messages can be cleared every day or two.i am not quite sure about a best method of achieving this. Initially I wanted to create a static method that serves the next available id (incrementing the last id by 1). But this approach willn't guarantee unique number as the application starts only when at least one user is logged on. For e.g .On one server the app starts when a user logs in, he then sends a message and then the application stops when that user logs off. So when a next request for the app comes to that server a new instance will be started.

is it possible to make one application send a task to another application and recieve the result from that secondary app?i made a text editor program and i added a scan feature and i made another app that has ocr capabilities.The scanner ability is in my text editor program, the ocr program doesnt scan you have to input an image into it and it will give text result a few seconds later.the prob is alot of times the ocr code uses sooo much memory and crashes when its incorporated with my text editor, but individually each application works fine and doesnt take too much memory. Memory wont be even an issue if the ocr program is standalone so that when it is done decoding image the application can be made to exit. now here is the question, how do i make my text editor send the image to the ocr program and how do i make my ocr program send the text back to my text editor? is it possible? i mean the only way i know off is creating temp files in a certain folder and having a timer on each program that keeps waiting for temp files. That just seems like pretty lame coding to me i was wondering if there's a better way?

Which is the best way to store application and user settings of an application running with multiple instances?My problem is that using the vb's "Application Settings" one instance would overwrite the other one.I want to identify each instance with a number passed via command line argument. I could use this number to identify the appropriate settings of the running instance, but I see in a local INI o XML file a better way to handle that.

I currently have a simple crystal reports application which generates a crystal report and in the built in viewer provided by VS2005. There is a drop down where you can select options to change the criteria of the report. I wish to convert this app to a windows executable which will take all those select options and generates pdfs based on the crystal report. the executable will be triggered by windows task scheduler...or maybe command line app?
Obviously this will be somewhat of a re-write. What would be the best way to start this as? a crystal report application or a windows application.

I have a windows forms application written in VB.NET which scrapes information from serveral web pages (who doesn't right)? Anyway, I am having problem with one particular site where partway through the page navigation my application hangs. When I press pause (or break) in the debugger, it stops on a call to System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents.
Resuming execution shows that it really is stuck on this line (it does not reach the next line of code). It also hangs about the same point each time I run it (at least its consistent). Since System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents yields to other threads on the same processor and then resumes execution of the current thread, I think the problem is that some other thread is not behaving well (not returning from some event handling code). I thought Windows 7 was pre-emptive, which makes me
doubt that theory but I really don't know.
[Code]...
The program scrapes somewhere between 12 and 14 pages before it gets stuck on the call to DoEvents. Does anyone have a clue why this would happen? Why would any call to DoEvents hang?
