I'm getting closer - putting myself in the "Replace a process level
token" policy allows me to launch processes with CreateProcessAsUser,
and they genuinely run as the intended impersonated user... BUT, the
spawned process invariably bombs out immediately with "the application
failed to initialize properly (0xc0000142) click on ok to terminate
the application". Any ideas?
