If you run the ancient software on modern Windows, you might consider windows sudo, which is a thing nowadays.

I wonder whether you cannot use Windows user permission ACLs. They are pretty fine grained. Might be hard to find the right set of permissions, but for me this sounds the more relevant place compared to PAM.

If this is also some ancient Windows version, such as w2k, I would isolate the overall machine and stick with admin permissions.
