Question

I have the program that show the registration window when it was started. When I set login and password the program must create some file in Program File/SomeProgram directory. I need administrator rights for this program.

How can I run program with administrator rights if program isn't registered? So I need set administrator rights when I create file. I need some example code.

Was it helpful?

Solution

You might consider writing to CommonAppData special folder, instead of Program Files.
