Executing EXE in Elevated Previllage

[PramodR]

 

I am trying to execute a exe file in auto it as elevated previlage , but not successful till now . below are the methods i tried till now.

Disabled UAC access from windows and  selected run only as administrator from executable properties.  i logged in as administrator but still exe needs to launch as run as administrator.

 

Used Below methods from forum still no luck. anything i missing? i tried to use powershell.ps1 intead of exe as well.

1.  Local $iPID = RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, $RUN_LOGON_NOPROFILE, "c:\Exec.exe", "", @SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)

2.  RunWait("C:\Automation\TestScripts\Writefilter.exe", @WindowsDir, @SW_MAXIMIZE)     - Std out error

 

Quote

If IsAdmin() Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "The script is running with admin rights.") 

This command gives out put as running with admin rights

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <AutoItConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#RequireAdmin

Example()

Func Example()
    ; Change the username and password to the appropriate values for your system.
    Local $sUserName = "Admin"
    Local $sPassword = "PASSWORD"
    Local $iPID = RunAs($sUserName, @ComputerName, $sPassword, 0, "noetpad.exe", "", @SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
    ; Run Notepad with the window maximized. Notepad is run under the user previously specified.
;~     RunWait(@WindowsDir & "C:\automation\TestScripts\Writefilter.exe", @WindowsDir, @SW_MAXIMIZE)
EndFunc

Try adding #RequireAdmin at the top of your script.

@Subz THankyou very much for your help . Scripts working with below command after adding requireadmin.i

i still see error in console as errorstd out why that error is coming?

RunWait(@WindowsDir & "C:\automation\TestScripts\Writefilter.exe", @WindowsDir, @SW_MAXIMIZE)

Is that the complete script above, because it works fine for me.  Can you post the entire code?  Can you also post screenshot of the error, because not sure where it's coming from.  Are you sure the error is the script i.e. if you run from within Scite do you get the error?  I suspect the error is occurring during Build which usually means that the programs is already running in the background and can't be overwritten.

That's not an error. That's part of the command line when you run a script so you can see it in the console.
