Same cmd command returns different results for different users

I am typing this same command from two different accounts:



query process <process name>.exe /server:<server name>


From account A, it returns the list of processes on the server as expected.



From account B, it simply says No Process exists for <process name>.



Of course, this means account B does not have permissions to view the processes on this server.



What settings do I need to change so that account B has permissions to view this? (My account is account A and I have administrator privileges to change all accounts.)



Both account A and B are admins, so there must be some specific setting in B preventing it from accessing this information.

    Is this over a network? If so, account B needs also to have permissions over the other computer.

  • @harrymc I thought for sure this was the issue but I came in to work today and found that account B has permissions on the other computer, so this is a separate issue. Do you think I should modify this existing question or create a new question?
