OpenProess fails, Access Denied
Hi,
I need to get a handle to a process that was started by SYSTEM. I have its PID.
My exeutable is started from the command line so I get Access Denied error.
Is there a way around this limitation?
Thanks,
Nivo

er, my bad. Add a couple of CloseHandle(hToken);'s in there so you don't leave the handle open.
C
C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.

I'm assuming that you're calling CreateProcess?
What access rights are you requesting in the call? Start with minimal access and "work up".
PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION
or
PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFO
See if either of these succeed.
