Vista Administrator privlages

[John Armstrong]

Hi All

What the hell is this??
Running a game the Windows vista and it closes becauase you do not have
Administrator privlages ( My account is the System Admin )
Each time I go to start the game I have to right click and select " Run as
Admin" What a pain.

There has to be another way to disable this.


Any Ideas?
Thanks
John

There is - do some home work - via available UAC group policy settings and
disabling UAC.

It's a higher level of protection from those who would give you hell.

Well yes. Go to User Acounts and Family Safety > User Accounts > hit the
"Turn user account control on or off" option .. and so on.

If it's not that great an inconvenience, I would advise you keep UAC set to
ON. Why? It can stop a lot of malwares dead cold in their tracks, keeping
your computer un-infected by that junk.

Disable UAC or modify the shortcut, go into Compatibility and check the
"Run as Adminstrator" box.

Blame the useless dicks for not writing their game properly.

Right click the program's icon...Select properties...Select Advanced
button...Check run as admin...Select OK...

That should save you from have to select it via the menu each time...
