[Error] Outlook + Profile Admin

[Blois]

 

Hello guys,

 

I'm having a problem reading Outlook when I use #RequireAdmin, as far as I understand it, it can not read the Outlook Profile that is configured from the user running the application.

I need to run some parameters with #RequireAdmin after it reads Outlook.

$oOutlook = _OL_Open()
If @error <> 0 Then Exit MsgBox(16, "OutlookEX UDF: _OL_Open",  "Example Error" &  ". @error = " & @error & ", @extended = " & @extended)

This retunr is @Error=1

Can you help me?

If you use 2 scripts, one that run with RequireAdmin, and the launcher that doesn't you can use the launching script to get the information from the logged on user, and the second script can be run under admin, and gets information from the first script.

What's the value of @extended after _OL_Open?
The wiki (https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/OutlookEX_UDF_-_General#Debugging) explains the problems you might face when using #RequireAdmin.

I found it here in the forum.

other question for read a profile  you can't do by registry ?

[water]

Can you make sure that Outlook is not running when you start your script with #Requireadmin?
As described in the wiki:

Running script as Administrator

It seems that the process that starts or hooks into Outlook needs to be run with the same permissions as Outlook.

You get the following error when setting _OL_ErrorNotify(2):

 NumberHex = 800401E3
 Number = -2147221021
 WinDesciption = Operation Unavailable

I use OutlookEX.au3 to read the emails, respond to other things, regedit does not offer me this.

You know that you can specify which profile to use when calling _OL_Open?

[Blois]

Thanks for the help guys.

I validated that if I use the option to run Outlook as Administrator it can read the emails, I had to set Outlook to open as Adminsitrador every time.

 

Tks! "D

Or you could make sure that _OL_Open opens Outlook so it is being run as Administrator:

#RequireAdmin
#include <OutlookEx.au3>
If ProcessExists("Outlook.exe") Then
    ProcessClose("Outlook.exe")
    If @error Then Exit Msgbox(0, "ProcessClose", "Error " & @error occurred when closing Outlook. Please close Outlook manually and restart the script!")
EndIf

Global $oOL = _OL_Open()
; Rest of your script

Perfect! Tks.
