Run as administrator for normal user

Recommended Posts

Is there any way to run program with administrator privilege

but without entering administator password each time I run it?

 

I have some applications that need administrator privilege to

run like hardware monitoring or games from popcap.com...and it

is so troublesome and annoying to use right-click and select

Run as... every time I need to run it.

 

Maybe something that works like sudo on UNIX...root permit

the user(s) some privileges to do something (run program for

example) and then user only prompted to enter their own

password or NOT prompted if there is no password...well you

know...

 

Thanks before, and sorry about my bad English...

You need to find out -why- it needs admin priviledges. It can be either NTFS permissions, local security permissions (which can be change using secpol.msc) or Registry permissions. You can then set the relative permissions and allow the program to be run as a normal user w/o logging in as admin!

For Popcap games (demo) it solved by changing the registry permission. But for H/W monitoring I have no idea...
