RunAs + Defualt user netowrk drives

[instabin]

I'm trying to run a program that need to be run as administrator but I can figure out how to keep the users network drives after the autoit executes the runas command.

I have tried the flags 1 - 4

Maybe you can use the forum search engine ? (like set privilege keywords)

I have tried searching the forms but have not found anything to help me.

the way i do it is get the current mappings, save that to a variable, then at the end remap all of the drives after it exits from the runas portion of the script.

you can't keep the network drives as the command is executed as a different user with his own user profile and his own drives. either run the application directly from the network share or copy it over to a temporary directory. you can test that in explorer.

or add the global group "Admins of domain" in the local group "Administrators" of the PC. You'll have all the rights on the PC and on the network drives with an user belonging to the global group "Admins of domain".

It is possible to do it with AutoIt (it works at least with XP SP2).

Be careful. If a .exe is started with a RUNAS, and if this .exe starts an other .exe without giving heritage of rights, the second .exe will say that it needs administrator rights.
