Need to start a script as admin

[damon]

I have looked for this but can not find what I am trying to do.

I have a script and need it to promote its self to admin

I know that runas is the way but with the script I am running it recalls the file.

expandcollapse popup

Local $user = "admin"
Local $pass = "password"


If IsAdmin () = 0 Then
    If RunAs ( $user, @ComputerName, $pass, 0,@autoitexe, @scriptdir) = 0 Then
        MsgBox (0, "Xport Update", "Xport Update Failed.  Please Contact Support Technican for Installation Update" & @CRLF & "ERROR 0001")
        Exit
    EndIf
EndIf

$w = 0
Do
If ProcessExists ("Xport.exe") <> 0 Then
    If ProcessClose ("Xport.exe") = 0 Then
        MsgBox (0, "Xport Update", "Xport Update Failed.  Please Contact Support Technican for Installation Update" & @CRLF & "ERROR 0005")
        Exit
    EndIf

EndIf
$w = $w + 1
Until $w = 5

If ProcessExists ("Xport.exe") <> 0 Then
    MsgBox (0, "Xport Update", "Xport Update Failed.  Please Contact Support Technican for Installation Update" & @CRLF & "ERROR 0007")
    Exit
EndIf

If FileCopy ("xport.exe", "C:\GPS Software\Xport\xport.exe",9) = 0 Then
    MsgBox (0, "Xport Update", "Xport Update Failed.  Please Contact Support Technican for Installation Update" & @CRLF & "ERROR 0010")
    Exit
EndIf
If FileCopy ("xport.exe.manifest", "C:\GPS Software\Xport\xport.exe.manifest",9) = 0 Then
    MsgBox (0, "Xport Update", "Xport Update Failed.  Please Contact Support Technican for Installation Update" & @CRLF & "ERROR 0015")
    Exit
EndIf

MsgBox (0, "Xport Update", "Xport Update Completed Successfully.  Please Reboot Computer")
