How to enable shortcuts for 'Run as administrator' in Windows 8?

Shouldn't matter.
OK so we know it isnt a profile problem, then it is in the registry for the whole system.
I just have to find out what regkeys you need :-)

Thanks a lot, you are great to take it seriously; you must be awfully busy.
Should I look up something in the registry, or possibly back it up and enclose?
As I mentioned sfc/scannow reported it'd found something corrupt but couldn't fix it. These lines in its log
say 'failed'. I can't make out anything from this, you might.

Thanks so much once more.

When the SFC reports errors it cant fix then the problem is deep in the system.
AT that point is when I do a repair install, you keep all your programs and settings.
Which for Windows 8 is called Refresh.

This will most likely fix the reg keys for the run as administrator as well. :wink:

George:
I'd read about this 'Refresh' option before asking for outside help but found that everything non-Windows and all settings would be lost. The page you referred to also says so:
'whilst removing all downloaded and installed programs such as Java, Adobe and Games. Your PC settings will also revert to default.'
How do you mean 'you keep all your programs and settings.' ?
George
Shane:
Do this instead :-D
