Important: Grant System Rights (Permedit)

[Zephir]

Hey folks,

i've been discussing a Problem I had lately on this issue: I tried reading Memory from WoW and couldn't. The reason was that AutoIt is running in UserMode and thus cannot access some App's memory. This is why the _MemoryRead() func (by Nomad) returned blank values.

The solution is to grant your Script( which is supposed to read the memory) rights to edit any process on your system. Google "Permedit" to find such a Program.

This is how you fix your Script:

1. Download Permedit (Link)

2. Run your Script

3. Run Permedit ( The process AutoIt.exe must exist when you run Permedit)

4. Look for "AutoIt.exe", select it and Click on "Grant system Rights"

--> Now your script will be able to read the memory of any process on your system!

Now some of you might not have this problem, thus no need for Permedit. I do. And that is why I need your help.

Is there a way to grant such a right without Permedit? Does anyone know what this program does? Is it possible to write a script that is going to grant itself such a right?

I think it's classic issue as for reading data from TreeView in other applications.

See this post

Also look at Auto3Lib - look how there is used memory UDF

Maybe it will help you, maybe not.

its simple! Just add this line to your code:

SetPrivilege("SeDebugPrivilege", 1)

SetPrivilege("SeDebugPrivilege", 1)

Which doesn't compile in AutoIt. Where are you getting the SetPrivilege call from? Auto3Lib automatically handles this when dealing with controls. It will try to allocate memory space in the control and, if it fails, will try again using the debug privilege. However, AFAIK, there is no native "SetPrivilege" call in AutoIt.

the correct syntax /example is described in:

Welcome to the AutoIt forums.

But are you sure that after 10 years of not visiting the forum, PaulIA is interested in the answer? Please look at the dates of posts in future as we do not encourage necro-posting.
