I am trying to start a process on a remote windows 2008 server using a C# code, which uses WMI. I am presenting a valid Administrator credentials in the code, but keep getting the AnauthorizedAccessExceptionUnhandled error.
I made sure that on the target server the Administrator account is authorized to impersonate client after being authenticated. I could not find any errors on the system event log (maybe there are some other log files I need to look at)
I'm attaching my program here. 

C# WMI anauthorized access exception

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

The Microsoft Legacy Operating System topic includes legacy versions of Microsoft operating systems prior to Windows 2000: All versions of MS-DOS and other versions developed for specific manufacturers and Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions, and Windows Mobile.
