I have a script that needs to run from Software Center when a non-admin is logged in.
It needs to copy application data to $ENV:USERNAME\\AppData\\<dir>\\*
(among other things) and it needs to run as administrator to work properly.
The problem that I've discovered is that when the script is run on a non-admin profile with admin privileges the environment variable $ENV:USERNAME
returns the machine name rather than the actual logged in username.
Is there a way around this?
You can either use ([Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent()).Name
or you get the profile path from the registry :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment\APPDATA
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment\LOCALAPPDATA
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Volatile Environment\USERPROFILE
Choose your weapon :)
