I was able to get it to work.
For normal impersonating, I used the following code
public class Impersonation : IDisposable
{
private WindowsImpersonationContext _impersonatedUserContext;
#region FUNCTIONS (P/INVOKE)
// Declare signatures for Win32 LogonUser and CloseHandle APIs
[DllImport("advapi32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
static extern bool LogonUser(
string principal,
string authority,
string password,
LogonSessionType logonType,
LogonProvider logonProvider,
out IntPtr token);
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
static extern bool CloseHandle(IntPtr handle);
[DllImport("advapi32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
static extern int DuplicateToken(IntPtr hToken,
int impersonationLevel,
ref IntPtr hNewToken);
[DllImport("advapi32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
static extern bool RevertToSelf();
#endregion
#region ENUMS
enum LogonSessionType : uint
{
Interactive = 2,
Network,
Batch,
Service,
NetworkCleartext = 8,
NewCredentials
}
enum LogonProvider : uint
{
Default = 0, // default for platform (use this!)
WinNT35, // sends smoke signals to authority
WinNT40, // uses NTLM
WinNT50 // negotiates Kerb or NTLM
}
#endregion
/// <summary>

public Impersonation(string domain, string username, string password)
{
var token = ValidateParametersAndGetFirstLoginToken(username, domain, password);
var duplicateToken = IntPtr.Zero;
try
{
if (DuplicateToken(token, 2, ref duplicateToken) == 0)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("DuplicateToken call to reset permissions for this token failed");
}
var identityForLoggedOnUser = new WindowsIdentity(duplicateToken);
_impersonatedUserContext = identityForLoggedOnUser.Impersonate();
if (_impersonatedUserContext == null)
{
throw new InvalidOperationException("WindowsIdentity.Impersonate() failed");
}
}
finally
{
if (token != IntPtr.Zero)
CloseHandle(token);
if (duplicateToken != IntPtr.Zero)
CloseHandle(duplicateToken);
}
}
private static IntPtr ValidateParametersAndGetFirstLoginToken(string domain, string username, string password)
{
if (!RevertToSelf())
{
ErrorLogger.LogEvent("RevertToSelf call to remove any prior impersonations failed", System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType.Error, "");
throw new InvalidOperationException("RevertToSelf call to remove any prior impersonations failed");
}
IntPtr token;
var result = LogonUser(domain, username,
password,
LogonSessionType.NewCredentials,
LogonProvider.Default,
out token);
if (!result)
{
var errorCode = Marshal.GetLastWin32Error();
ErrorLogger.LogEvent(string.Format("Could not impersonate the elevated user. LogonUser: {2}\\{1} returned error code: {0}.", errorCode, username, domain), System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntryType.Error, "");
throw new InvalidOperationException("Logon for user " + username + " failed.");
}
return token;
}
public void Dispose()
{
// Stop impersonation and revert to the process identity
if (_impersonatedUserContext != null)
{
_impersonatedUserContext.Undo();
_impersonatedUserContext = null;
}
}
}
To run it I do the following:
FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(logfile);
using (var imp = new Impersonation(Settings.ImpersonateUser.AccountDomain, Settings.ImpersonateUser.AccountName, Settings.ImpersonateUser.AccountPassword))
{
if (File.Exists(filename))
File.Delete(filename);
fi.MoveTo(filename);
}
For running console commands, I used the following code.

and executing it doing the following
string commandLine = "Robocopy " + args;
ProcessId = CreateProcess.LaunchCommand(commandLine, ImperDomain, ImperUsername, ImperPassword);
I also had to make some changes to the local policy since I want able to copy permissions in robocopy.
Thanks for all the comments and help.
