Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 8, 2016 #2 Are you starting the other exe file with jShell? It will run with administrator privileges if the B4J process runs as administrator. You can use this code (on Windows) to test whether the process has administrator privileges: Code: Sub RunningAsAdministrator As Boolean Try File.WriteString("\", "test.txt", "test") File.Delete("\", "test.txt") Return True Catch Return False End Try End Sub Upvote 0
