Running ebot file with run as administrator option
Title: Running .ebot file with “run as administrator” option
Q. How do you run .ebot files with “run as administrator” option?
A.
There are 3 ways to do it.
1) Change the compatibility option to run the PAM Agent executable file with administrator privileges (Recommended)
Find the executable file at default PAM Agent file path:
C:Program Files (x86)\ARGOS\AgentForRPA\Win\ArgosRPAUxRobotAgent.V3.exe
2. Right-click the "ArgosRPAUxRobotAgent.V3.exe" file and click the Properties menu.
3.In the Compatibility tab, check "Run this program as an administrator".
4. When the PAM Agent is executed (ebot, ondemand, schedule, testrun, etc.) after changing the setting, an elevation dialog box is displayed.
2) Run .ebot files from CMD with administrator privileges (easy choice)
Run cmd.exe as administrator.
Enter the full path of the .ebot file and run it.
3) Setting to run all programs as administrator (any program runs as an administrator, so there may be a security risk.)
Reference : By use of gpedit.msc (which is an application that requires Admin rights)
Run gpedit.msc

"User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators in Admin Approval Mode" Set to Elevate without prompting
