niftyapple Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 Hello everyone! I've been searching the heck out of this issue and I just cant seem to find the answer. I will start off with saying sorry for not using the AD UDF by Water, and here's why. So since my work has been migrating over to alt admin account setups, I have been looking to replace my morning ritual of signing into every program each time I start my machine. I understand most of these can be set using runas and using my alt account. I have already conquered all that, made a quick GUI with spiffy buttons (aid my coworkers to use the fruits of my labor). I add programs to a list and they all startup in an elevated priviledge. All that is all fine until I get to the Active Directory - Users and Computers snapin. For the life of me, I can't get the runas to boot the AD snapin with admin priviledges whatsoever. When the run as sends, nothing happens - no errors. I have seen passed conversations(from a few years ago) where it was referenced to build your own interface for the AD using the UDF. My question are: Why re-invent the wheel? The AD snapin is feature full. Everyone knows how to use it. Probably would be better than anything I can build. Autoit is about making your life simpler, why go through another 500 lines of code when maybe 2 or 3 would do the trick? I'm sure I could shell-execute it to work, but that goes back to step 1: having to manually enter credentials since shellexecute doesnt accept creditials as a parameter. So, has anyone figured out how to swiftly execute the AD snapin with elevated priviledges of an alt account? The system I am using is Win7 x64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

water Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Please wait at least 24 hours before bumping a thread. This is not a 24-hours-support-foum. If no one knows a solution to your problem then there will be no reply, I fear.
