Request Administrator Permissions

The Agent can escalate to ADMIN on Windows by requesting UAC permission.

After requesting UAC, the client will receive a notification which must be accepted.

After clicking ‘Yes’, if the user belongs to an Enterprise Domain, there will be an option for the Agent to enter Administrator credentials.

The user is then prompted to allow ScreenMeet to reinstall as Administrator.

The user must click Yes.

The Agent will receive the following notification: “The Session is blocked by a Windows secure dialog. Please request admin mode via UAC to access secure dialogs.”

Finally, ScreenMeet restarts as a Trusted Application as indicated below, and the Session continues.

Once UAC permission is granted, more shortcuts become available. (Additional functions under ‘Program and Features’ will become enabled once UAC permission is granted.)

Each button launches the corresponding function on the client’s PC.
