Launching the bat file as an administrator

[B Bharath Kumar Reddy]

We are having issue with launching a bat file as an administrator.

@echo OFF

cd /

cd Scripts/app-stop

echo "Launching the App Stop script now %date%-%time%

run-app-stop-services.bat

echo "End time : %date%-%time%

Can someone explain me the command that I have to use so that the bat file will run as administrator.

Yes.

You right-click the batch file in Windows, click "Properties", and on the "Compatibility" tab, check the box next to "run as Administrator". Your domain policy needs to allow this.

Alternatively, the command is "runas", you can use the cmd.exe command "runas /USER:administrator" to run things as other users. However, then you usually need to supply a password interactively, which does not combine well with UC4.

Hth,

I found a solution but I am not sure if it's applicable for everyone or not,
I've selected the "Login as batch user" option from Windows tab and the job is executing fine.
