When you use LaunchExecutableEx() function to automate tasks on a Windows 8 or Windows 10 computer, you may have encountered situations when you need to start a program elevated (a.k.a. as administrator). If started as standard user you typically would get error (access denied), or a Windows confirmation/approval Windows popup message - which could be undesirable if you want the program to work silently. LaunchExectableEx() would be helped with an optioned ability to automatically start a program elevated.
