If the tool is optional, look for a version that doesn’t require getuidx64 . Some Unix‑ported tools offer fallback mechanisms using GetCurrentProcessId() and GetTokenInformation() without needing admin rights—check the build configuration.
Specifically for specialized hardware like RAID controllers or network adapters.
