Question

I\'d like to use C# to determine which privileges are assigned to my process/thread token, and adjust them as necessary. For example, in order for my program to restart the

Here's what I use. It is based off of the Mark Novak article, but with less paranoia for untrusted stack frames, CER's, or reentrance (since I assume you are not writing internet explorer or a SQL Server Add-in).

Answer 2

This turns out to be non-trivial because there's no built-in mechanism for it. Not only is P/Invoke required, but you must code carefully to make sure that you don't "leak" privileges by enabling them and then not disabling them soon enough (though not an issue if you're restarting the computer).

For a complete code sample with description, read the MSDN magazine article from March 2005 "Manipulate Privileges in Managed Code Reliably, Securely, and Efficiently" by Mark Novak.

Here's the P/Invoke declarations:

using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

        AdjustSessionId     = 0x00000100,

        Read                = 0x00020000 | Query,

        Write               = 0x00020000 | AdjustPrivileges | AdjustGroups | AdjustDefault,
