App Run As at standard users.

Hi
I work & manage domain environment.
There is a particular file that I want to give it administrator privileges so that he can make changes to the system.
The file should work for users who do not have local administrator permission.
I prefer to avoid creating batch File because I want to give the permission to the application itself.
I did not find solutions on the net, and what I found is not working.
also the black\white list at the policy management does not change anything.
Thanks

Hi,
Could you please have a share about which file that you would like it to have admin rights here?
There seems to be not possible to achieve such goals in addition to scripts or some 3rd party tools.
Besides, please take a look at the below thread to see if they could help here:
Admin Permissions for standard user for one program
Running a Program as Admin, logged in as a standard
user.

DLU / app, windows updates / local standard user

We're having issues with our users not being able to update apps (patches, etc.) due to being regular user for the local profile. Our config is as follows:
- Zen11 SP1
- eDir auth
- Windows XP/Win7 PCs
- Novell client
- Most users are set to 'user' for local profile
- Most users have their own machine
Is there a way to get these updates (Acrobat, Windows, Java, etc.) installed without the user entering in an 'admin' password?

Flash Player can update silently since version 11.2. It is working ok. Quarterly Updates will install after 30 days. Critical Fixes will be faster: There was the issue with Flash Player and Mozilla in June and i have seen the 11.3.300.262 update installing around 21 of june for the Plugin and not ActiveX.
Mozilla announced Silent updates. But its still not working for standard Users. Currently it only prevents the UAC Prompt for Admin Users.
So we still have to update Adobe Reader, JRE, Mozilla

How that is done is unique to each app.
They often put some type of app in on of the Run Keys or Startup folder
than needs to be removed so they stop trying to do it themselves, which
is bad because generally they can't for a number of reasons ranging from
lack of user rights to proxy/internet access issues from a corporate site.

Running under a standard user in windows 7

We just bought Photoshop Elements 13 and when the user tries to run the program it run really slow and freezes quite a bit. This user is a standard user in Windows 7 no Administrative rights. If you right-click the icon and choose Run As Administrator it then runs like it is intended to. We don't allow our users to run as Admin so I need a fix for this. The only other thing I am wondering is that the computer is in a Active Directory Domain environment and we push our Group Policies to our systems. One of the policies redirects the users folders to a server share so the My Documents, My Photos, etc. are actually on the server drive not the local drive. Is that part of the problem?
Any insight would be awesome!
Thanks,
-Scott

I agree with Erland.
SQL Service account is used while performing any OS level operation by SQL Server process (sqlservr.exe). On the other hand, the account which is connecting to SQL Server will have it's own permission in Server/Database provided via Logins/Users.

Win7 64 bit, FF 3.6.12, Acrobat Reader 9, can only open pdf file if I run FF as an administrator. Will not open if FF is run as a standard user.

If I run FF in a standard user account (non-admin) pdf files will not open. If I start FF in the standard user account but right-click FF and "run as administrator" the same pdf file will now open fine.

( links in emails )
this is what fixed my issue with links in my windows live mail
in Firefox go to tools >options >advanced > general tab > at the bottom click the check now button to make sure Firefox is your default browser . if its not click yes to make it default now your links in emails should open in Firefox properly

Win7 PC won't run upgraded photoshop CC (2014) as standard user

Since upgrade from photoshop CC the PC won't run using the standard user account (which is on the office network) but only run as local Admin (which doesn't have access to the office network).
when opening photoshop CC 2014 the PC prompts for local admin rights, then can't see the files on the network drives.

Thanks Jeff. The user is a standard user. He's been using Photoshop CC on this same PC for a long time. Photoshop CC (2014) is not crashing.
In order to upgrade, I had to switch to the local admin account, upgrade was successful.
When my standard user logs back in using his personal, standard user account, he is prompted for Admin credentials when he opens Photoshop CC (2014). He enters the admin password, but he then can't access the files on the network, as the local administrator doesn't have access to the network. This happens every time.
He has no problem running inDesign, or the old version of Photoshop, or any of the other suite of products.

What is the difference between "Adiministrator" & "Standard" user accounts?

Hi,
I was wondering what is the difference was between "Adiministrator" & "Standard" user accounts?
Is "Standard" more sucre for everyday use than "Administrator"?

An administrator has more latitude in taking actions that have potential for harming the computer intentionally or accidentally than a standard user. Also, an administrator has the power to enable the "root" user--the user who can do the most harm intentionally or accidentally. The less one knows about his or her computer and its environment the more important it is for the individual to run as a standard user. If one is running as a standard user, then he or she will have to take a time out, which allows a period of reflection, before actually taking potentially harmful action since to do so he or she would have to logout and back in.

Hide Running Apps from Standard Users

Hello
How can i hide running apps from a standard user?
Ex
I would like to have team viewer running in the background so anytime i want i can administrate the mac ..But if the user quit from app i'm not able to log in.
So i'm thinking to make him unable to quit from the app either have the app running in the background..
Any ideas?
Thnx

Be aware that the major difficulty in using your own encryption routines is key management.
- If you store the key in the database, the DBA can obviously just call the appropriate decrypt routine, pass in the key, and see the data
- If you store the key outside the database but expose it somehow in a way the database can see, you've got the same problem.
- If you store the key outside the database in a way the database cannot access, then only the applications that know how to access the database and know how to access the key can decrypt the data. That can be annoying if you try to use a reporting package or other third party software that needs to see decrypted data and doesn't know how to decrypt the data. You'd also have to make sure that the DBA doesn't have access to whatever machine you're storing the key on for other reasons (i.e. because the DBA is the backup to the admin)
- If you don't store the key at all, you can force users to pass it in when they want to decrypt data. That obviously runs the risk that someone forgets the password because not enough people know it or that so many people know it that its no longer a secret.
- Plus, you have to deal with things like figuring out how you revoke/ change a key, how you synchronize backups of the database with backups of the key without DBA intervention, etc.
These tend to be much harder problems than figuring out how to encrypt the data on the way in.

Standard user cannot install apps

I have setup a Mac Mini in my office for several people to use, with me as Admin and others as Standard account. The problem is, when someone wants to install an app, they always get a prompt to input the Admin's username and password. From my research, I was under the impression that Standard users could install apps, but only for their own account, which is what we want. But for some reason, it's not working that way. I did a Google search and following one recommendation, used Disk Utiltiy to repair permissions on the hard drive of both the Admin and Standard User account in question, but with no positive result. I'm a bit reluctant to just give Admin privileges to one person; then others will may ask for the same privileges. What should I do?
Thanks,
HL

It sounds like they are trying to install an application in a location that they do not have permissions for (the main /Applications folder, for example). They will need to use a location inside their own account that they have access to - usually this would be in a different Applications folder that has been created in their own account. There are a few badly written applications that expect to be installed and run from an administrative account, but fortunately there aren't too many of those.

Authorization-problem for standard users when running WDR_TEST_ZCI

hi
we've developed a WDA application incorporating several interactive forms. it all runs fine in QA--environment when a user with developer-role are running the application, but when standard users are running it, it fails.
the same happens with the demo-app WDR_TEST_ZCI.
i so belive this to be caused by missing authorizations for the users. can anyone shed any light on which these might be?
the error as reported in the browser:
The following error text was processed in the system Q97 : Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.
The error occurred on the application server xx-x168_Q97_05 and in the work process 0 .
The termination type was: RABAX_STATE

any input appreciated.

Hi Tom,
When you are familiar with authorizations in PFCG trabsaction you are finaliar with S_DEVELOP if not ask the authorization team on your project.
Basically this authorization object handles the read/write etc authorization related to devlopment objects. If you implement Adobe forms you will probably develop your own forms or at least copy the SAP forms to customer namespace.
For Adobe you will therefore have 2 custom development objects (1 for the form and 1 for the interface that is automatically generated). The end-user shoulf have at least READ access to these objects. If not the portal will trow an error on this.
To determine the tech names of the objects find the form and related interface in transaction SFP. These should be inserted in the object S_DEVELOP in the role for the end users.
You may want to consider to put the value Z* in the object which will give authorization for all the custom developed objects.
If you can't find the object reply again and i will send a screenshot.
Finally, make use of the splended transaction ST01!! It will make your life a lot more easy in portal! It traces all the authorizations needed and missing for any user you specify. After activating the trace and running a portal scenario the log will tell you want went OK and what not on an authorization object level.
Good luck,
Thomas
ps. Thanks for the appreciation you gave in my other thread. Now we have the answers in both threads as well. Take Care.

Standard user cannot connect to app store

Does anyone know how to solve problem where a standard user get the message "Could not connect to app store" when trying to connect to app store. I tryed to remove content from keyring and read a number of threads on different forums but I can´t seem to find the right solution. When logging on to the machine as administrator I have no problem connecting to app store using the same apple account.
Any ideas what to do in order to fix this problem. I am running latest version of IOX lion mountain

Flash Player does not work with Standard User, but will work when browser is "Run as Administrator"

I don't understand why this is happening, but Flash Player will not work when a Standard User is using the browser. It will only work when the browser is run as an administrator. Any way to fix this? I've tried to uninstall, and reinstall the player, and it still wouldn't work.
The user is on Windows 7, 64-bit. Using IE 10.
Flash not working for Standard User - YouTube

Any update to provide at all here guys? Again, in my situation, it's very much rights-related as a standard user doesn't even report that the flash player exists when testing it on the Adobe Flash Version Detection website (despite it showing up in Control Panel and under Add/Remove Programs). I've already tried giving the C:\Windows\System32\Macromed and files/subfolders appropriate permissions for the standard user and still nothing. If I either give the user in question full local admin rights or logon as the domain admin, then the Adobe Flash Version Detection website says Flash is installed and Flash works fine.
Thoughts???

Standard users forced default "run as administrator" for acrobat.exe X pro

The software has been reinstalled and patched CS6 all componets of CS6 run fine under a standard user account with the exception of Acrobat Pro. Acrobat Pro runs fine when an administrator is logged in BUT when a standard user logs into the computer all application shortcuts and even direct execution of the exe insists on "running as administrator", seeing as though they are not an administrator they can not run Acrobat Pro X. Any assistance would be grealtly appreciate.

I'm not saying Norton is your problem, but I haven't heard good things about Norton software in a long time, unfortunately.
I always recommend Avast! antivirus to people. The free version is very good in itself, and they offer a more comprehensive Internet Security version as well.
I don't know how technically-oriented you are, but if you do understand how things work fairly well and have taken measures and adopted good practices to avoid running malware, there is the possibility of just shutting off UAC (MIcrosoft User Account Control) if its operation continually gets in the way of your completing your work. Typically, most people just get in the habit of confirming whatever prompts come up anyway, which defeats most of the protection UAC can afford.

Firefox 7 crashes (on startup) when running on Win7 as standard user.

Upgraded from 6.02 to 7.0 (automatically) on Win7. Running as standard user, FF 7 crashes on startup. Running with admin rights, FF starts up ok. Was running 6.02 as standard user with no issues. Disabled all plug-ins, and same result. Submitted this without the crash ID as well, but now have figured out how to supply it. Cannot see how to startup FF on win7 in 'safe' mode. Shift key during launch doesn't work. No menu items for 'start ff in safe mode.

Here's a workaround for users using Oracle ESSO version 11.1.1.5.0 on win7. The workaround removes the startup of the v-GO helper object for mozilla.
Note that this also means no SSO support for FireFox.
1st - on installation of ESSO - try turning off the Mozilla helper (custom install).
A registry fix will also work
(Try at your own risk and backup before editing the registry.) YMMV for this workaround and other versions/flavors of SSO/Tivoli/v-GO and Windows.
Key is
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Passlogix\Extensions\AccessManager\StartupApps]
Remove the line starting "MozHOPath"
Restart v-GO SSO or reboot

Windows 7 Elevating using UAC, does not change the standard users setting, it runs the Admins settings

When elevating privilege for a standard user using an admin account, the UAC runs the application under the admins account "user" and not the standard users account "user", the problem is that doing so, it does not change the standard
users settings
In this example, trying to change the "Check for Updates Automatically" as the standard user, is grayed out, you have to be an admin to change this. This is a design of Java.
When you right click and run as an administrator, the option is no longer grayed out and can be deselected, however, this only changes that setting for the admins specific "user", not the standard users specific "user" the admin is elevating
privilege for. as illustrated below.
Is there a work around for an admin to run his credentials but elevate the standard users session instead of his own or some other way to set the standard users setting when admin credentials are required?

Hi,
Based on your description, I understand that you want to disable
Check for Updates Automatically option for standard users in Java.
You can achieve this target by editing
EnableJavaUpdate registry entry. For more details, please refer to following articles and check if can help you.
(Please back up before that registry operation. That will help us to avoid unexpected issues.)

Is there a way to run Illustrator CS6 under a Windows XP standard user account?

I spoke with Adobe Support over the phone and the only answer I could get was Illustrator must be run under an admin account.
For those who may be interested in helping figure this one out:
This is installed on an enterprise network, therefor handing out admin privledges is not the preferred solution. I have a privledge manager that allows directories and the files and folders within to run with administrative privleges so I was thinking with C:\Program Files\Adobe\, C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\, and C:\Documents and Settings\<USER>\Application Data\Adobe\ all allowed to run elevated that might work. Unfortunatly it did not.
After further examination I noticed that when I try and run Illustrator as the user, Illustrator.exe will start under that users username, but only for a few seconds and then terminates with no error or event in the Event Log. However if I do a runas and use elevated credentials, Illustrator.exe runs as SYSTEM and opens perfectly fine.
Anybody ever run into this or have any suggestions?
Thanks ahead of time.

Please provide full control permissions on the following folders.
C:\Program Files\Adobe*
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe*
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Macrovision Shared
C:\Documents and Settings\<user_name>\Application Data\Adobe*
C:\Documents and Settings\<user_name>\Application Data\com.adobe.*
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe*
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\FLEXnet
C:\Documents and Settings\<user_name>\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe*
and then apply full permissions to the following registry entries:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Adobe
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrovision
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe
