Safeguard Privilege Manager for Windows 4.6 - User Guide

Using the Self-Service Elevation Request Prompt

NOTE: Using the prompt is the only way to ask for permission to download an ActiveX control through Safeguard Privilege Manager for Windows. An ActiveX control is a small program or add-on that you can download from your web browser.

To request permission to launch an application that requires administrative rights

  1. Visit the site from which you want to download the application and click the installation button. For example, to download the Adobe Shockwave Player, visit http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ and click Download now.

  2. If prompted, enter the administrator User name and Password. If you do not know the administrator User name and Password, click No.

  3. Request permission to launch the application in the Self-Service Elevation Request prompt that appears.

    NOTE: Consider the following:

    • If the prompt does not display for an ActiveX installation, ensure that the Self-Service Elevation Request (ActiveX installations) feature is enabled in the Viewing the status of advanced features window.

    • If the prompt does not display for an application that is not an ActiveX installation, ensure that the Self-Service Elevation Request feature is enabled in the Viewing the status of advanced features window.

    • Contact your administrator if neither features are enabled.

  4. Enter the reason you need the application along with an email address (if this feature is enabled) where the system administrator can respond to your request.

  5. If it displays, check the In the future, don't show me this when I try to run applications that need approval check box if you do not want the Self-Service Elevation Request prompt to display automatically every time you do not have the administrator's credentials. To set the prompt to display again, follow the instructions for Displaying the Self-Service Elevation Request Prompt.

  6. Click Submit to send your request to the system administrator.

  7. The system administrator reviews your request and sends you the final decision.

  8. If the system administrator confirms your request, a new privilege Elevation rule is created, allowing you to launch the application when you login into your computer. For more information, see Viewing rules.
