Request UAC elevation at runtime
by Guest John Daintree- 0 replies
- 232 views
Hello all, I have an application that may, depending on user actions, require elevation. Is it possible, at runtime, from within the program, to request elevation? So the sequence would be: 1) Start program (not elevated) 2) User performs actions (as non-admin) 3) User trys to perform action that will require admin privileges 4) Program prompts user for elevation 5) Program performs action with admin privileges 6) Program de-elevates 7) User performs actions (as non-admin) 8) Program exits. Thanks in advance, john

Printing from within Windows viewer
by Guest fats46-2- 0 replies
- 109 views
I can use Windows viewer to display images, but when I try to print them I get a blank page out of the printer. And I noticed today that the problem is even more complex. As I said, when printing from within Windows viewer I get a blank page out of the printer. BUT, this happens only when I try to print a single image. When I select multiple images, to print them together on one or more pages, I get the images printed but all the colors are inverted. Never have seen this before. Viewing and printing images from within Irfanview works fine. Printing from within any other program on the PC works allso.
