No idea, i'm assuming this kind of login is "just" for logging/tracking purposes and not to deterimine user rights. As ignition would not know who has admin roles in windows. So it wouldn't be the worst if it was wrong ---

Make sure the batfile cant be changed without admin rights:) But yes, this is not safe, could be enough for logging though [Previous page](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/need-windows-user-in-perspective/65181.md?page=1)
