Pascal

Parameters	Description
const Enable: Boolean	If True the function attempts to enable the specified privilege. If False the function attempts to disable the specified privilege.

Return Value

If the function succeeds the result is True, otherwise the result is False. Failure is usually caused by the caller not having sufficient access rights (i.e. TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGE) to enable or disable privileges.

Description

EnableProcessPrivilege enables or disables the specified privilege for the current process. You can, for example, enable the debug privilege by using this function. The user associated with the calling process must already have TOKEN_ADJUST_PRIVILEGES access.
