Urgent - Utility Environment - Command prompt issue

I am trying to silent install a msi file in command prompt elevated mode. It is working fine manually but not with the blueprism Utility Environment start process as I guess the command prompt is not running in the elevated mode. Any solution to resolve this issue? Attached the params that I am using

Hello @LakRPA,

There are two ways you could do this:

Add a line of code to the Code stage of the Start Process action to set the Verb property of the process to runas.
Start the runtime resource with elevated permission. Then every process it runs should have elevated permission.

The problem I see with both approaches is that both will likely result in the UAC prompt being displayed.

Cheers,
Eric
