Hi,
I have an application to be run as Local System Account, it suppose to
show a msgbox to the user but it doesnt show anything.
I know that app run as system is not visible but is there any other
way to show something?
Thanks in advance.

if this is a service ... it is a bad idea to show the user a message box ...
this could freeze the service.
however, if you do want to run this as a service and have a messagebox
appear for a user...
Go to the administration tools Services find your service properties >
second tab (Log On) information , check the 'Allow Service to interact with
desktop' ..

That's to be expected.
Services [used to] run an a "virtual desktop" that nobody can actually
get to see. Popping up a dialog in this way would hang the service
process, so it's actively prevented, with the message usually going to
the Event Log instead.
I believe that the ability for Services to "interact with the desktop"
is being /removed/ from newer versions of Windows.

Lots - most of which will require a process to be running in the user's
interactive session.

Hi Phill, Jeff,
Thanks for your replies.
This is just a plain VB.Net application intended to run by Altiris (as
System). It displays a msgbox that tells user to restart the pc (yes/
no). I just want this msgbox to appear.
Can anybody guide me how to do this?
Thanks.
Rgds,
Joel

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
