ImpersonateSelf

The ImpersonateSelf function may be used to obtain an Impersonation token representing your own process's context. This may be useful for enabling a privilege for a single thread rather than for the entire process; or changing the default DACL for a single thread.

The token is assigned to the callers thread.

Parameters

ImpersonationLevel

The level to make the impersonation token.

Return Value

The return value is TRUE if the function was successful, or FALSE if an error occurred. To obtain extended error information, use the GetLastError function.
