( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

I don't think it should matter - it's actually closing the current (non-elevated) process and starting the same thing again from the shell with elevated privileges, so it's going to reload @INC the same way anyway.

Once you're not in elevated mode, you can't change - you can't "upgrade" a running process. You can even see this in Microsoft's own tools; the Task Manager has a button "Show processes from all users" when you start it as a non-administrative user. Click that button and you'll notice that the Task Manager window goes away and reappears, now with a checkbox instead of a button. That's because the non-elevated process had to be swapped out for an elevated one.

It's kinda weird, but eh. Windows.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
