Returns a WindowsIdentity object that represents the current Windows user.

public static WindowsIdentity GetCurrent(bool ifImpersonating)

Returns a WindowsIdentity object that represents the Windows identity for either the thread or the process, depending on the value of the ifImpersonating parameter.

public static WindowsIdentity GetCurrent(TokenAccessLevels desiredAccess)

Returns a WindowsIdentity object that represents the current Windows user, using the specified desired token access level.

public static void RunImpersonated(SafeAccessTokenHandle safeAccessTokenHandle, Action action)

Runs the specified action as the impersonated Windows identity. Instead of using an impersonated method call and running your function in WindowsImpersonationContext, you can use RunImpersonated and provide your function directly as a parameter.

public static T RunImpersonated<T>(SafeAccessTokenHandle safeAccessTokenHandle, Func<T> func)

Runs the specified function as the impersonated Windows identity. Instead of using an impersonated method call and running your function in WindowsImpersonationContext, you can use RunImpersonated and provide your function directly as a parameter.
