Request for title line
Posted: 29 Mar 2006, 18:37
Hi, I might have what someone would consider a strange request but once you understand the reasoning, you'll see it's not so strange.
Could it be possible to display the user's name and SYSTEM RIGHTS (like Users, PowerUsers or Administrators) in the title line? Reason is this: I usually runs my systems with Users rights (for obvious security reason). But in order to administer my pcs, I use 'MakeMeAdmin' to elevate my right to Administrators right. MakeMeAdmin creates a command console where program ran from it have administators right. Since it's hard to know under what rights was Explorer launch under, the creator of MakeMeAdmin wrote a DLL that attaches itself as an Explorer toolbar that display in RED if you have administrators right, in GREEN if you have Users right and in PURPLE (I beleive) if you have PowerUsers right. It's a great visual indicator to know what right an Explorer windows has. That DLL only runs within IE and Explorer so it can't be used in Salamander, hence my request.
Simply displaying the user running isn't helping because MakeMeAdmin elevate the rights of the CURRENT user so in either case, weither I've Users or Administrators right, it's under the SAME name. I don't use 'Run As' since this changes the user you're running under and therefore also affects the network drives, something that MakeMeAdmin doesn't do (ie, you're MS Network drives remain the same).
Having such feature in Salamander would allow me to know off hand under what rights was this instance of Salamander running.
Thank you for considering my request.
