Bat elevation

I need to run .bat file during installation with administrator privileges. I have "requireAdministrator" UAC Elevation option in Project options, however .bat files are run without administrator privileges. Is there any workaround?

Dear User,

for sure there is something wrong with the approach you used.
If the setup package gets elevated, all the child processes will be elevated as well.

If you have a chance to post a very MINIMAL project that replicates the issue, I'll have a look.

Regards

I've found that problem was only when debugging - because InstallAware Studio itself was not elevated.
