Title bar question
« on: January 24, 2013, 02:22:21 »
My title bar starts with [Admin]. My login user is an administrator, becuase this is how I use my computer.
I run my browser and email at a lower level with DropMyRights.
Sometimes I need access to the file system that the Admin account won't let me manipulate (Windows 7). For this I use Psexec.exe to launch MultiCommander. Psexec.exe creates a service that launches an app (in my case MultiCommander) as an NT Authority\System user. I can confirm this using TaskInfo. However, even under this condition the MultiCommander title starts with [Admin].
I thought that this title entry was supposed to indicate the running authority. Could someone please explain it's usage?
Thanks

You see the [Admin] tag in the title bar when Multi Commander is run by an account with an elevated access token.
Processes with elevated access has admin access.

I decided to use the command line switch -T="System User" so that I can tell how MultiCommander was launched.
Thank you
