What happens behind the scenes when clicking Repair button in Add/Remove Programs?

When I click on the Repair button in Add/Remove Programs to repair a program, it fails. The reason being is that I am not running as Administrator and something during the repair process needs elevation. That brings me to the conclusion that I should run repair as elevated. The only problem with this is that I don't know what command is being called when I click the Repair button. Also, I don't know where the command is located that is being called. I know where UninstallString and ModifyPath are in the registry, but of course there is no RepairString. Any ideas as to where that Repair button is getting the command to call?
