...and just on the slim chance anyone else ever happens upon this thread and tries to repeat... I just wanted to reassure myself that this did indeed work / I could repeat the steps. Well I recreated the runas_test.bat file on my desktop (forgetting the users folder issue). Then I remembered the use...

Administrator option on tool
Wouldn't you just use the native Windows parameters, is it:
/runas:Administrator
or something like that? after the path/to/exe? You just include this as a parameter within the Tool configuration parameters, if I've got that right...

Thanks AmigoJack, but I'm afraid the problem does not occur on my personal laptop, so I can't use handle to try find the root cause outside of my work machine. And we don't have Process Explorer at work, only Process Viewer which does not provide a filter/search option. I had a weird cmd.exe problem...

DOS/External tool does not delete temporary .bat file
Hi, When TextPad runs an external DOS command, it creates a tiny TPxxxxxx.bat batch script, and runs that. I use TextPad frequently on my home laptop, for which I have admin rights, and on my work laptop, where I do not have admin rights (admin rights may or may not be relevant). Work TP version is ...

Notepad++ (or other scintilla editors) block-insert mode
I had to use Notepad++ for a bit after starting a new job. It's ok, I'm not saying it doesn't have its uses, but... Thankfully, my new employers let me have TextPad, but it took a while (partly owing to COVID-19). I sort of miss the colour-highlight of matching words, but I'm happy with my INCL tool...

How to fudge vertical split + independent scroll
I managed to get tp to 'break' the synchronisation, same behaviour regardless of 'Synchronize Scrolling' setting! If you use ctrl-G to Goto a line number, only that pane moves to the requested line number. (+ add on half the number of lines in your display, so that the line you want comes to the top...

Fill block
I have never even noticed 'Fill Block', but gave it a whizz.
I use tabs not spaces to indent, so the minimum I can select is 4 columns (1 tab).
So I get 4 slashes, for example, rather than 2. I suppose this does the job, but I'd prefer 2.

Clip library history problem workaround
Hi ak47wong, I'm not sure I consider this a bug as such, but I know the feeling when you think you can get something from history to find you didn't have the clipboard history cliplib open. I have recently setup TextPad so that the cliphistlib opens when opening TP - and I also have TP in Win Startu...

Ability to put clib-library history item back on clipboard
Cummon TextPad, this must be a cinch to do. It was requested by ak47wong back in 2009, I can't see it taking a developer more than an hour to do this...!
