Thank you for your response. So, for that particular part of the PAD, I will have to keep it to a manual response and then perhaps I can make the rest as automated, if there is no re-course. Unfortunately, my employer will not permit me to make any temporary or permanent change to UAC, for RSoP on the CMD prompt... it's a clearance related work. I will probably have other questions and I will ask them later, as they arise. Thank you.
