Hi All,
I’ve a driver installer/remover (much like pnputil + devcon) which works fine in XP + Vista. But when I try
Win7 I get a CR_ACCESS_DENIED when trying CM_Reenumerate_DevNode, even though the process is executed under a user
with administrative rights. Could sure use some help here…
TIA
/Rob
When you say ‘administrative rights,’ do you mean an account with admin rights or executed using ‘Run As Adminstrator’ (UAC)? If the former, you need to do the later.
Good luck,
mm

So if I shut down UAC, it should work anyway?
/R
Does using “Run as administrator” give joy?

Yes, the rescan seems to work. Then I just need to inform users to use the RAA option.
Thnx.
/R
That will do it as well.
Good luck,

Nope, unfortunately not. But that’s no big deal. Running it with RAA seems to be the ticket.
Thank you
/R
I forgot:
In case you’re not familar with UAC:
start GPEDIT.MSC:
Under:
Local Computer Policy\Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options
Enable:
User Account Control: Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator Account
User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode
Good luck,
mm
It certainly should work - disabling UAC, that is; how did you do that?

On this topic, back when I tried out blogging I wrote this one:
“I Just Wanted to Install My Dam Driver on Windows 7…”

Under user UAC setting, heh. Using your pointers, it works fine now

Glad to hear it. You had me worried for a minute that this was some new Win7 thing.

No, you just need to include a manifest in your exe that requests elevation.

Ok, I was hoping someone else would take the bait and ask how, but since
they didn’t I’ll have to fess up and show my ignorance. How do you request
elevation in a manifest, Tim?
I spent quite a bit of time looking yesterday, so it’s not a matter of not
doing my homework. Nothing in the docs that I recognized, but sometimes
formulating the right question is a more difficult task than the problem
you’re trying to solve.

In VS2008 the option is in Linker-Manifast File properties.

Actually, I believe it’s dependent on the language in which you’re programming within VS 2008.
I’ve always done it by manually editing the manifest as suggested by SNoone. The specifics are here:

Yeah … I noted no change in a C++ project in either Debug or Release when
using the Linker flag.

My bad … I was looking at the 32 bit version when I was changing the 64
bit version. Changing the linker flag does indeed appear to work … as long
as your looking at the right file!!!
