Hi,

I am working on a internet diagnostic tool which will correct the browser settings if it is in improper state and enable the internet connection.

I have created the COM object for Connection Manager Class.
I am facing the access denied issue on Windows VISTA and Windows 7 with Guest User.
Therefore, I am required to run my application as " Run As Administrator".

However, in this case the problem is, it reads the browser settings for Admin. It doesn't picked up the Guest user's Browser settings.

Please help me to determine the best possible solution for such issue.
Thanks

Maybe you could use the LogonUser[^] function to switch user accounts within your program. It should give you access to the settings you need.
