CreateProcessAsUser() in C# .NET Framework API (NOT Win32 API)

Question

When I use Win32 API CreateProcessAsUser() to execute a program with impersonated user in my C# .NET project, it was successful.

But I want implement that using .NET Framework API.

There is a similar method like System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() But it's not exactly same as CreateProcessAsUser().

The function CreateProcessAsUser() receives "hToken" at the first parameter. So when I duplicate a token and use it to that function, I can impersonate a user and execute a program with that user.

But the method System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() doesn't provide such a parameter.

If there is anyone who knows this, would you please let me know? Thanks

ProcessStartInfo has UserName and Password properties in NET 2.0 or greater.

There is no native solution. I'm sorry I disappointed you.

As Microsoft's Knowledge Base advises, You can do it only through P/Invocation (exactly like you do): https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/889251
