Hi,

Following the thread of the XP privileges that Serge started, I decided to make a quick app, to retreive a list of the users of the current windows system.

Now, all works ok, but on non english system the ALL USERS will be in the list also and it would be difficult to determine it with code. Anyone knows how I could make the following code work, but without the ALL USERS appear in any language? Basically only the valid users on the windows system...

Code:
#define function,string
external @path(%0)string.dll
Title Get users
  DIALOG CREATE,Get users,-1,0,456,359
  DIALOG ADD,LIST,LIST1,67,41,365,234,,,click
  DIALOG SHOW
  list create,1
  if @sysinfo(ISNT)
    #NT,200x,XP
    %%drive = @path(@windir())Documents and Settings
   list filelist,1,%%drive,d
  else
     #windows 95,98,ME
     list filelist,1,@windir()profiles,d
  end
  list seek,1,0
  repeat
     %%string = @item(1)
    #code needed to NOT retreive the ALL USERS in any language
     list add,list1,@string(GetAfter,%%string, "\", LAST)
  until @null(@next(1))
:Evloop
  wait event
  goto @event()
:list1click

goto evloop
:Close
  exit


Complete package attached with the string.dll..


Thanks Smile

Found an extra info...

This regkey:
HLM,software\microsoft\windows NT\currentversion\profilelist

(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList)

That might be helpful.. getting late.. will continue tomorrow morning..to investigate...

Hi Marty,

I tweaked your script a bit... I've only tested on a Win2k machine, but seem to work for me... Try this:

Code:
#define function,string
external @path(%0)string.dll
Title Get users
  DIALOG CREATE,Get users,-1,0,456,359
  DIALOG ADD,LIST,LIST1,67,41,365,234,,,click
  DIALOG SHOW
  list create,1
  list create,2
  if @sysinfo(ISNT)
    #NT,200x,XP
    gosub NTUsers
  else
     #windows 95,98,ME
    gosub "9XUsers"
  end
  list seek,2,0
  repeat
  %%string = @item(2)
     list add,list1,@string(GetAfter,%%string, "\", LAST)
  until @null(@next(2))
:Evloop
  wait event
  goto @event()
:list1click
info @item(2,@index(list1))
goto evloop
:Close
  exit

:NTUsers
  %%profiles = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList"
  list regkeys,1,HLM,%%profiles
  list seek,1,0
  repeat
    %%ProfilePath = @regread(HLM,%%profiles\@item(1),ProfileImagePath)
    list add,2,%%ProfilePath
  until @null(@next(1))
  exit
 
:9XUsers
  %%profiles = "SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ProfileList"
  list regkeys,1,HLM,%%profiles
  list seek,1,0
  repeat
    %%ProfilePath = @regread(HLM,%%profiles\@item(1),ProfileImagePath)
    list add,2,%%ProfilePath
  until @null(@next(1))
  exit
 



Let me know...

Maybe you can do something with this? Just check if this item occures in list1... Smile

Code:
info @env(ALLUSERSPROFILE)

Thanks a lot Hooligan Smile Works ok so far..

Skit thats also a good solution thanks, but I seem to get all the real users by using Hooligan modification:-) But do I really need them all? Dont think so..

So I guess I will fiddle with both ideas and post something in the source code section when I am done.
