To get Windows users to log on as regular users instead of admin, I need to check that all their applications run OK with limited rights.

Is there an application specifically aimed at checking that an application can run with limited rights, or is SysInternals’ Process Monitor what everyone uses for this purpose?

Thank you.

    Create a test account that has the permissions as the domain users of your application Login in as this user on a non-development computer. Preferrably a computer with a new operating system installation and all of the other “standard” company software. Install the software and run. This is the only way to really test your application.

    • Make sure you exercise the entire application.
    • Make sure install and uninstall work as expected and do not leave any artifacts behind.
    • Having the ability to restore the operating-system and software on the test computer to its original state is a great help.

    Use the Permission Calculator Tool to make sure you handle obvious issues before performing this test.
