Fixed in git.  Per MSDN, opening a process for VirtualQueryEx access
requires PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION access.  PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION
isn't sufficient.

Strange enough I found that this only affects Windows 8 and earlier.
PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION works fine on Windows 8.1 and 10.
It's just not clear if that's just a difference in the implementation
of UAC trust levels or if the docs are lacking.


Thanks,
Corinna
