Hi
My program running as an elevated process, and starting new processes with Process.Start().
For security reasons, I would like to run those new processes as non-elevated.
How to do that?

I like this solution, it actually works. the only problem is that it working only on EXE files. What should I do if I want to start .txt file? (it should implicitly start notepad non-elevated)

One thing you can do is to find the default .exe associated in the registry with the .txt extension and then start that .exe passing it the .txt file. I don't know of any other way to get the behavior you desire (with elevation suspended). You can check my answer in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3924753/where-does-windows-store-its-open-with-settings/3924822#3924822 to see how to get the application associated with an extension.
