Is there a way to launch msbuild so that it calls devenv.exe as admin? We need this because it registers COM assemblies as part of the build.
thanks – dave

The only way is to launch MSBuild.exe as administrator (such as running msbuild command at an elevated command prompt), then all processes initialized by it such as devenv.exe are running under administrator context.
