Hopefully this may help someone using Sim Commander to launch Asseto Corsa Content Manger (which subsequently launches Asseto Corsa) and also use Simhub at the same time

If you use "explorer.exe" to launch Content Manager from within SimExperience Sim Commander this will stop CM inheriting (being started) with elevated privileges from Sim Commander

This is important if you intend to use SimHub - as SimHub will warn you that Asseto Corsa (launched via Content Manager) is running with Administrator rights and as a consequence will not be able to read telemetry data (e.g LovelyDashboard doesnt work) 


Here is a screen shot of my Content Manager game settings (using explorer.exe to launch it )


  Here is a TaskManager screen shot to confirm content manager has not inherited "elevated privilege" from being launched from within Sim commander via explorer.exe and consequently Assetto Corsa will not be started with inherited elevated privelge either and Sim Hub and the rest of the world will be Lovely(dashboard)  ;-)


Hope this may help some one ?

Thank you! Never thought launching programs through explorer.exe from an elevated process would demote the launched program. Good to know and not just for this situation.
