Windows Task Manager: How to see elevation status?

Question

Possible Duplicate:
How can I tell whether a process is running with administrator permissions?

Windows 7 Task Manager, Processes tab.

When I run a programm, batch ... elevated (run as Administrator), I still see it with my User name "HorstWalter" in the Windows Task Manager.

I'd have expected to see it as user name "Administrator". However, how can I tell the process is running elevated?

@HorstWalter, If you know the answer now, you can just close the question yourself. — soandos, Feb 26 '12 at 17:55

@HorstWalter Even though appreciated, it would be undeserved credit because it would be copying the answers on the other questions.

You cannot do this from inside Task Manager. You can however use SysInternal's Process Explorer (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653) program which is effectively Task Manager on steroids.
