Shark007 0 Posted April 28, 2009 My GUI contains several different functions. functions that write to HKCU should not be invoked using admin privliges. while others in the GUI call regsvr32 which must use admin privliges. Is it possible to have a function call #RequireAdmin only as needed? Currently, no matter where I place #RequireAdmin, even in an IF statement, the GUI automatically starts off requesting admin privliges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melba23 2,773 Posted April 28, 2009 Shark007, To the best of my knowledge (backed up by a quick search!), directives are not conditional - if they appear anywhere in the script, they are acted upon!

Valik 472 Posted April 28, 2009 You can only elevate at the process level. It's not possible to elevate at the function or even thread level. You can use ShellExecute() with the runas verb to simulate the behavior of #RequireAdmin. Depending on the complexity of the statement you may be able to invoke @AutoItExe via ShellExecute() to prompt for elevation and use the single-line command feature to run a single line elevated. However, keep in mind, if you have multiple such commands you will annoy the user with all the UAC prompts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
