Default Erunt Question

I am logged in as an administrator. However, if I try to run Erunt by
left clicking the program, I get an error message. So, I right click
and choose 'Run as an Administrator' and it works fine. Why should I
have to do this?

Default Erunt Question


Go into All Programs and find Erunt. Then right click on it Properties
Advanced Check the box "Run as Administrator" Apply OK. Now you

need not go thru the mimic each time any more. But you will still get
the usual UAC window.

PS: To answer your initial question: Yes you are the admin. But a few
programs require admin mode (cmd is another one). This is to protect
your system against malware and is usually applied to programs that can
make major changes in your system..

Thank you very much. That's a piece of information well worth having.

Oops!!! Erunt isn't in All Programs. I tried doing what you suggested
in the program folder - but that option "Run As Administrator" isn't
there.

I also tried your suggestion on another program that I have to right
click on and select "Run As Administrator" in order for it to open with
all options. This program had the check box to "Run As Administrator"
and I checked it off. However, that didn'y work either. I still have
to do the "right click" and select "Run As Administrator."

Default Erunt Question

ERUNT is best run in the background. This can be accomplished by the
following TaskScheduler script. Adjusted for you system of course. BTW, I
sent this to the author of ERUNT and he approved of it.

I included the .xml file in this message for those of you who do not want to
open attachments. But they are the same, and the attachment can be imported
directly to task schedular.

Hope this helps you.

Default Erunt Question

Upon rereading this post, I realized that the most important reason for
running ERUNT from this task is that it runs *before* UAC becomes active.
Therefore, you do not get an elevation requests. It runs seamlessly and
without any need for the user to do anything.

Thank you very much. However, I am not sophisticated enough to
understand how to use this script. Can you elaborate please?
