Hello Kem,
I did send a message via XOJO forum but I guess that did not get trough.
While seeing the limitations on windows and searching little bit about elevated privileges I found those Link here
In case the page does not work anymore the code was here :
:: Elevate.cmd - Version 4
:: Automatically check & get admin rights
:: see “https://stackoverflow.com/a/12264592/1016343” for description

REM Run shell as admin (example) - put here code as you like
ECHO %batchName% Arguments: P1=%1 P2=%2 P3=%3 P4=%4 P5=%5 P6=%6 P7=%7 P8=%8 P9=%9
cmd /k[/code]
and in the description it was saying :
[quote]The script takes advantage of the fact that NET FILE requires administrator privilege and returns errorlevel 1 if you don’t have it. The elevation is achieved by creating a script which re-launches the batch file to obtain privileges. This causes Windows to present the UAC dialog and asks you for the administrator account and password.
I have tested it with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 and with Windows XP - it works fine for all. The advantage is, after the start point you can place anything that requires system administrator privileges, for example, if you intend to re-install and re-run a Windows service for debugging purposes (assumed that mypackage.msi is a service installer package):[/quote]
Do you think that could be added somehow in Kaju and have it work in Windows ?
Thanks again.
