Hey guys,

I'm developing an application for our IT Helpdesk to do some common tasks like installs, drive mapping, etc...

However this application needs to be run as administrator. Is there a way to get the application to bring up the RunAs prompt as soon as it runs, so the user doesn't have to do a Shift + Right click > Runas?

Thanks

Perfect guide: Make your Visual Basic application run as administrator | Mahdi Hazaveh

I'm assuming it only works that easy in Visual Studio though.
