[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisible(true)]
public enum WindowsBuiltInRole
type WindowsBuiltInRole =

Fields

Name Value Description
Administrator 544

Administrators have complete and unrestricted access to the computer or domain.

User 545

Users are prevented from making accidental or intentional system-wide changes. Thus, users can run certified applications, but not most legacy applications.

Guest 546

Guests are more restricted than users.

PowerUser 547

Power users possess most administrative permissions with some restrictions. Thus, power users can run legacy applications, in addition to certified applications.

AccountOperator 548

Account operators manage the user accounts on a computer or domain.

SystemOperator 549

System operators manage a particular computer.

PrintOperator 550

Print operators can take control of a printer.

BackupOperator 551

Backup operators can override security restrictions for the sole purpose of backing up or restoring files.

Replicator 552

Replicators support file replication in a domain.

Examples

The following example shows the use of the WindowsBuiltInRole enumeration.

public:
   static void DemonstrateWindowsBuiltInRoleEnum()
   {
      AppDomain^ myDomain = Thread::GetDomain();

      myDomain->SetPrincipalPolicy( PrincipalPolicy::WindowsPrincipal );
      WindowsPrincipal^ myPrincipal = dynamic_cast<WindowsPrincipal^>(Thread::CurrentPrincipal);

      Console::WriteLine( "{0} belongs to: ", myPrincipal->Identity->Name );

      Array^ wbirFields = Enum::GetValues( WindowsBuiltInRole::typeid );

      for each ( Object^ roleName in wbirFields )
      {
         try
         {
            Console::WriteLine( "{0}? {1}.", roleName,
               myPrincipal->IsInRole(  *dynamic_cast<WindowsBuiltInRole^>(roleName) ) );
         }
         catch ( Exception^ ) 
         {
            Console::WriteLine( "{0}: Could not obtain role for this RID.",
               roleName );

Remarks

These roles represent the local Windows groups common to most installations of Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

Note

In Windows Vista, User Account Control (UAC) determines the privileges of a user. If you are a member of the Built-in Administrators group, you are assigned two run-time access tokens: a standard user access token and an administrator access token. By default, you are in the standard user role. When you attempt to perform a task that requires administrative privileges, you can dynamically elevate your role by using the Consent dialog box. The code that executes the IsInRole method does not display the Consent dialog box. The code returns false if you are in the standard user role, even if you are in the Built-in Administrators group. You can elevate your privileges before you execute the code by right-clicking the application icon and indicating that you want to run as an administrator.
