[Solved] Shortcuts from start to 'Run as administrator' don't work (Win 8.1 x64)
jraju:
Hi, The "Run as admin" is a property of the executable, not the shortcut. You should add the required manifest that makes Windows prompt for elevation.
If you would like to have it in short cut also, you have to make change in the registry. Do you want it?
George:
Yep, jrjau, my uneducated guess from the first instance was that this is a registry issue. The shortcut should be registered to contain this function but for some reason it's been lost. If you know how to fix it, please tell me. (As I mentioned, it's for all shortcuts, not for cmd only.)
Boggin:
Have you tried running sfc /scannow in Safe Mode ?
jraju:
Hi, Boggins, George wants the available exes aside from windows protected exe, to open as admin only from the shortcut.

Ah, thought he just wanted the option to run as an admin.
The Safe Mode sfc /scannow could still reinstate whatever is causing the problem.
