检测应用程序是否在系统帐户下运行？

Question

I could probably use Environment.UserName and compare that to 'system' to see if it matches, but that seems hacky and I'm not sure how it would work in a non English environment. Any other suggestions on how to check if the current executable is running as the system account?

Answer 1

This should do it:

bool isSystem;
using (var identity = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent())
{
    isSystem = identity.IsSystem;
}

Never compare the account names. Comparing the user name to "System" would indeed fail on a localized OS.
