How can I access an existing Windows Adapter via a shortcut with Run as Administrator controls built in, instead of directly to the application
For security reasons, my company is changing access to a windows application to allow access only if "Run as Administrator" is selected. If launched independently of my robotics automation solution (from the public desktop icon), the shortcut itself prompts the user to agree to run as administrator and then runs the .bat file to load the application. Currently my adapter runs straight to the .bat file, but I need it to run thru the new shortcut and let the shortcut launch the application. How can I accomplish this in the adapter? If I set the path to the shortcut.lnk file, my StartMethod changes from "Start" to StartandWait" and then I get a message that the "TargetPath must contain a value for StartMethod StartandWait." If I set the TargetPath to either the shortcut folder or the actual application folder (where the .bat file is), then I get a message "An error occurred while setting up shared memory with the service 'OpenSpan Services'. Verify that the service is running". Please advise.
