Prerequisites

Steps to reproduce

Hi,

Just wondering if specifying the -includeUsername switch is supposed to prompt for elevation. Not sure why it needs it when task manager or the tasklist.exe can pull the username without admin priv

If its intended behaviour, is there any way to get the username of a process without elevation. Currently bulding a script to grab the processes of a specific user but this is a stumbling block i cant seem to avoid

Expected behavior

Be able to use the includeusername switch without elevation

Actual behavior

Prompts for elevation
