| | Documenting the command line that UAC attempts to launch Is there a way to set UAC to capture or log the entire command line of a program including all switches that is requesting elevation? I have an unknown potentially suspicious program that is requesting elevation and I am unable to see the entire command line or path to the binary to investigate it. To be safe, I have declined running the program, and briefly examined the Windows event logs but have not been able to find the details I am looking for. As a temporary work-around, I am going to connect via remote desktop to take a screenshot of the UAC prompt, but this only gives me part of the command since the display dialog cuts of the text. |

| | RE: Documenting the command line that UAC attempts to launch Hi, Based on my knowledge, we cannot set UAC to capture or log your request. However, I hope Standard User Analyzer can help you. Standard User Analyzer (SUA) tool enables you to test your applications to detect potential compatibility issues due to the User Account Control (UAC) feature. For more information, please refer to the following links: Standard User Analyzer Technical Reference http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/l...48(WS.10).aspx Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit 5.5 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...9E9-B581-47B0- B45E-492DD6DA2971&displaylang=en Thanks.

| | Re: Documenting the command line that UAC attempts to launch Sorry for the delay in responding Robinson Zhang, it looks like UAC doesn't have the logging features I need, so it looks like I'll need to use one of the Sysinternals tools instead to try and capture the program syntax.
