Create a child process where main process runs As Administrator

[Fred Heida]

Hi,

Question on Vista Run As Administrator. If i have exe which creates a child
process, using the Process class, and
this exe is Run As Asministror, is there a way to have the child process
also Run As Asministror with out confirmation for this (as this is already
doen my the main process) ?

Cheers,

Fred

If the parent process and child process have the same integrity level, UAC
should not kick-in:

"Each application that requires the administrator's access token must prompt
the administrator for consent. The one exception is the relationship that
exists between parent and child processes. Child processes will inherit the
user's access token from their parents. Both the parent and child processes,
however, must have the same integrity level."
