Running System Exec as Admin

[nandiouioui]

I am trying to run system exec as admin using a batch file but always get an error saying the command isn't right.

What does "/r" mean?  I don't see that in the list of options when I run "cmd /?" from the command prompt.

I found it there https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Run-command-prompt-as-administrator-using-system-exec-vi/m-p/290635... so I tried because /c didn't worked

It looks like you don't have a space between cmd and /r. You also need to create a shortcut to the command prompt that requires admin rights. See also https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Run-command-prompt-as-administrator-using-system-exec-vi/m-p/290635....

I tried with and without and it doesn't change anything

I found the error it was because my path file was wrong  https://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/What-is-Error-Code-267/td-p/23804

/R is the same as /C

C:\> cmd /?
Starts a new instance of the Windows command interpreter

CMD [/A | /U] [/Q] [/D] [/E:ON | /E:OFF] [/F:ON | /F:OFF] [/V:ON | /V:OFF]
    [[/S] [/C | /K] string]
[ ... (Output shortened) ... ]
/V:OFF  Disable delayed environment expansion.

Note that multiple commands separated by the command separator '&&'
are accepted for string if surrounded by quotes.  Also, for compatibility
reasons, /X is the same as /E:ON, /Y is the same as /E:OFF and /R is the
same as /C.  Any other switches are ignored.

Thanks.  I was only looking at the list and never saw it.  I never looked through the pages of other comments in all those paragraphs.
