Try calling the CreateProcess API with the first parameter “lpApplicationName” as NULL and put WinLicense.exe as part of the “lpCommandLine” parameter. Example:

 

CreateProcessA(NULL, (char*)protect_cmdline.str().c_str(), 0, 0, TRUE, NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS | CREATE_NO_WINDOW, 0, 0, &info, &processInfo);
