Chronicles of a Least Privilege Developer - Day 1

Well, my work day si winding down and I must say that so far, I haven't had any issues that were significant that I couldn't work around.

Below are the issues, and solutions I encountered today.

 

# Issue Solution
1 Access denied to date/time on taskbar. Although  I use Outlook, and carry an analog planner (you know the paper kind), I like using the calendar on the task bar to find dates. No solution found.
2 Could not run Virtual PC because it was "Ready Only" or "In Use". Well, not exactly. Apparently, you must be an admin to run VPC. Right click Start > Programs.Microsoft Virtual PC, select Run As and enter highly privileged credential. 
3 Access denied when starting/stopping SQL Server on SQL Server Service Manager from taskbar.  Right click Start > Adminstrative Tools > Computer Management, select Run As and enter highly privileged credential. Expand Services, stop/start MSSQLSERVER service.
     

All in all, not a bad day. Productivity was only minimally hampered.
