UAC and "Run as..." ?

Hello,

What happens with process created with "run as" command ?
UAC is on.
I'm logged on as simple user(users group), then I use "run as" command to
create process and supply user credentials which is a member of
administrators group.
So the new process created will have administrative token all the time, or
it behave like other vista administrative processes (two tokens - user and
administrative, rights are elevated as needed) ?

thanks
Vilius

That and the administrative token is inherited by child processes of
that parent. However, subsequent processes created by the limited user
account do not run elevated.

I'm not sure what you mean here. Sure, there is still a split (or
filtered) token scheme in effect unless you use the built-in
"Administrator" account.

Elevated command - type cmd into the Search box on the Start menu

right-click the command prompt icon that appears at the top of the

Start menu - select Run as administrator
