Privileges of an Application


Is there a way to get the privileges associated with a C# program? If yes, how?

I know that in C, you have to create a token and make use of the GetTokenInformation() method to get information about the token.

Is there something similar in C#?


Solution

  • My C# is a little rusty, but if i remember correctly this does the trick

    WindowsIdentity windowsIdentity = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
