Admin Run

[Pinecone]

Hi all, newbie on the forum, but I often use AutoIT for little scripts and things at work.

I have a script which does some system checks to make sure the system is in the correct condition (checks device model number, checks AC is plugged in, checks there is a bit of battery life in store) prior to running an Run(Update.exe).

If the script contains the #RequireAdmin and therefore runs with elevated privilege, will the update.exe it kicks off also have elevated privileges?

Or do I need to do a RunAs and contain the user credentials specifically?

If you use #RequireAdmin all child processes will be elevated as well.
