[Traskiz]

Hello,

I cant read ini file(ini.ini), when I Run that file(2.exe) as administrator from first script (1.exe). How I could do that? Tried everything nothing works

1.exe:
Global $sUserName = "Administrator"
Global $sPassword = ""
RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, "2.exe", "", @SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)

2.exe:

$text = iniread("ini.ini", "ini", "ini", "default")
MsgBox(4096, "title", $text)
IF $text = "default" Then
   MsgBox(4096, "title", "no ini")
   EndIf

ini.ini:

[ini]
ini=yes

PLEASE HELP. I need this for my real script... And  I need ini files for configuration

re you certain that you should not write to ini in 1.exe?

If not then be more clear in your problem.

Its not working... I tried :/ I dont understand how to give 2.exe that ini file, when I use Run() instead of RunAs() its working perfectly :/

Where is the ini file located, and does the Administrator have access to that location? In other words is it on a mapped drive that Administrator doesn't have?

All files is in C:ini folder. Can it be Auto IT bug?

Try using full path names to the ini file to make sure the script can find it.

Tried that Please, could you try it yourself? I have no clue how to fix it... It looks like a bug.

I did try it, it works if you use the full path to the INI file in 2.exe.

$text = IniRead(@ScriptDir & "\ini.ini", "ini", "ini", "default") ; <<<<<<<<< assumes the ini file is in the same directory as the exe
MsgBox(4096, "title", $text)
If $text = "default" Then
    MsgBox(4096, "title", "no ini")
EndIf

What happens if you put #requireAdmin at the top of 2.exe?

Forgetting the leading "" is an easy thing to miss, happened to me plenty.
