Run KeyView with Reduced Privileges

KeyView, by default, runs as the same user and has the same privileges as the application that calls it. When you run KeyView in-process this cannot be changed. When you run KeyView out-of-process, you can choose to run KVOOP (the out-of-process server) as a different user with reduced privileges. This feature might be useful if your application has to run with elevated privileges, but you want to run KeyView with limited privileges.

NOTE: This feature is available only on certain platforms, see KVOOP privilege reduction in the platform differences section.
