need to start service as Administrator but no interaction with desktopof current user possible??

[Hein Heinrichsen]

Hello,
I start a program as service. This progam needs to be started with
administrative rights. So I start it under an adminstrator account.
But now there is no interaction with the desktop for a normal user, e.g.
the program is not shown in the tray for the current.
Is there any possibility to get it to show for all users?
Thanks very much for your help

Most services run with invisible windows, i.e. no user interaction.

Is there any possibility to get it to show for all users?

Don't start it as a service.

Place a shortcut in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
or
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
or %allusersprofile%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

Anything in those two startup locations will start no matter who is logged
on to a machine.

Hello Wesley thanks for your answer!
But do they start with administrative rights?
I dont think so. This program (vshadow) needs to be started with Admin
rights
