Re: Winform: Call a vbscript with elevated privileges

Have a look at the StartupInformation you can pass into Process.Start. Here you can specify username/password.

I am making a .NET 2.0 WinForms application.

It lets a "normal" user select one or more scripts to be run with
Admin (sort of) privileges. And their actions get logged in a
database.

How do I run a script as another user?

It's not super secret stuff we are talking about. Embedding the name
and password of the Admin (sort of) account is enough.

I saw this piece of code for calling calc.exe. How do I modify it to
use a different user account?
