Hi,
when I start my windows service logged on as "Local System" account, I am able to interact with desktop successfully and everything is fine.But I am unable to interact with desktop when logged on as a specific User account? How can I achieve interacting with desktop under User account? is this impossible??
I am coding in C# .Net, under win XP.
Please advise. Thanking you.
more info:
my windows service will be starting a new internet explorer window with specified url in it, where target url would be from intranet. I am using process.start("iexplore","http://intranetwebsite") to perform this. Unless I start the service under certain user account, the service starts under local system and that makes it short of previliges to access the target. Then the username and password window will be popped up for authentication everytime which I dont want really. But this can be overcome if I specify a User account for the service, but there is no option called "Allow service to interact with desktop" like there is one under "Local system account".
I want to have option of "Allow Service to interact with desktop" under "This account" option of service properties. How can I achieve this or my job done? I want my windows service to start target url without getting username and password prompt.
