Title:
Activating Vista elevation prompt
Does anybody know the code to activate the elevation prompt of Vista so that after a user confirmation click, our program can get the admin right to write files into restricted locations, e.g., the Program Files and Windows folders (not the VirtualStore folder)?
I did an Internet search. Some say calling the ShellExecuteEx() API and supplying the "runas" verb as one of its parameters will do the trick. Would anybody provide help about the code?
