Is there any way to ask for elevation from a subprocess.Popen() call? Launching an application that normally asks for elevation automatically fails with error 740 - 'The requested operation requires elevation'. The runas utility needs an explicit username. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
