If one had a utility that runs properly if one right clicks then selects "as
administrator", how could it's shortcut run during boot-up assuming the
utilty is in the startup folder?
________________________________________________________________-
Depending on the application you check the applications Properites >
Security (tab) to see if the option there to check the program to run with
Administrator priviledges.
You can click on the individual application, go to properties,
compatibility tab. If the application supports it, you can check the box
that says Always Run As Administrator.
If your intent is to have the program run "as administrator" whenever you
log in, you can create a scheduled task that starts the program when you log
in with highest privilege.
UAC can be disabled - not recommended - disabling UAC also disables
"Protected Mode" while using IE 7. For example. in protected mode IE 7
downloads apllications/stuff into "virtual" folders and determines safety
prior to modification of Regisrty/System files.
Also color of UAC shield and background stripe indicate threat severity -
e.g. Red shield indicates "dangerous" threat - there are four different UAC
indications - suggest some reading on subject.
Besides disabling UAC, is there another way I can get a utility in the
startup folder to run with "administration"?

Go to the following website. JB has developed a program that will
automatically create a scheduled task that will run the program, at start
up, with administrator privileges. This will solve the problem you are
having.
