Question:
How do I run a program as administrator in Windows Vista?
Answer:
Windows Vista introduced UAC, which helps
protect your computer by not allowing any program to have administrative rights
unless properly granted. In some situations it may be necessary to run a program
as administrator in order for that program to run or install properly or have
all the capabilities that it needs. To run a program as administrator follow the
below steps.
Note: You must be logged into an account with
administrative privileges in order to follow
the below steps.
Run a program as Administrator
- Right-click the program or shortcut you wish to run as administrator and
choose the option Run as administrator
