Elevator

[EriX920]

I made this program for users to run specific programs with administrative privs. It will copy the cfg into the windows directory and encrypt the administrator password.

Simply run the exe that gets copied into the folder you specify and it should start the app with administrator privileges.

Main form:

Imports System.IO

Public Class configFrm

    Friend Shared apploc, pass, username, path As String
    Friend Shared authpath As String = "auth.cfg"
    Friend Shared count As Integer
    Friend Shared securepass As New Security.SecureString

    Private Sub configFrm_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        main()
    End Sub

    Shared Sub main()
        Dim sr As StreamReader
        Try
            If File.Exists(authpath) Then
                sr = New StreamReader(authpath)
                While sr.Peek <> -1
                    Dim s As String = sr.ReadLine
                    ' Split string based on spaces
                    Dim words As String() = s.Split(New Char() {"-"c})
                    ' Use For Each loop over words and display them
                    Dim word As String
                    For Each word In words
                        apploc = encryption.Decrypt(words(0), "258fwdjfh2fhwf9jf")
