#requireadmin

Okay, so I need #requireadmin to use run("something inside of C:\Windows") on windows vista, but do I need a special flag on the run("") command to run it as an administrator?

I might be misinterpreting but I believe #requireadmin ensures that the script will ONLY run if the person who executes it has admin privileges. If there is a chance that your user does not have admin privileges you could use RunAs().

yes, and it also activates UAC in vista - which is essentially nessecery for me because I am moving stuff around in @Windowsdir, but my question is:

Do I need to flag my Run("") in some special way to activate admin rights for that particular run or do my little .exe have to admin rights already because of the #requireadmin at the top of the code?

Just wondering

Ah, I see. Sorry. Unfortunatly, it's been a while since I've messed with UAC as it was the first thing I turned off when I installed Vista.

I hear you.

Unfortunatly, I am currently creating a program to fix the most common bugs in windows update, and I do not have that option, as the thought is the program should be able to run on as many computers as possible.
