    I have script .bat file i want to use QPorcess to run it or whatever to make this app run but i want it to run as an admin like i open it manually i right click it and select run as administrator how can i do this? because the script not execute and do it's job until it run as administrator.
    as i made alot of search but all i found is make the qt app itself run as admin
    Thanks in advance
