Hi, all! Answer(s) "in bulk"...

I'm a "sophisticated user". Yes, I already defined my own means, to install with elevation. I created scripts with AutoIt, which contains a pragma, "RequireAdmin", and can launch batchs. That is useful to me for PyWin32, but also for Python standard, and the majority of the installations/updates. > An application with "setup" or "install" or "update" in its filename > automatically gets elevated in theory, yes; but not (always) for me.

I use that in my install, (with >>) like/for "log analyze", if problem. > suppress the elevation I confirm: Runas with non-admin user suppress the elevation [Conclusion]: some if my scripts don't run, if UAC is activated. Even in admin; even with elevation. I am obliged to stop UAC; I do not have choice... And, it's easy : only few reg entries & a reboot. @-salutations Michel Claveau _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
