windows-elevate

windows-elevate is a Windows-only crate, it provides two utility functions:

• check_elevated() is used to determine whether the current process is running as elevated.
• elevate() is used to elevate the current process permissions.

Example

use windows_elevate::{check_elevated, elevate};

fn test_elevate() {
   let is_elevated = check_elevated().expect("Failed to call check_elevated");

   if !is_elevated {
       elevate().expect("Failed to elevate");
       return;
   }
   // From here, it's the new elevated process
}
