| Vista Home Premium 32bit | Stop asking administrator password on start of program? Hi! First of all, sorry for my english. My "problem" is the following: - I have a program that asks administrator password everytime you start it... So I'm wondering if it is to change some settings or something like that to prevent this. It's very annoying cause I have one admin account on our computer and the rest are typical user accounts. I don't wan't the other users to know the admin password and I can't always come and type the password when the program asks for it. So, is it possible to configure the program so that it won't ask the admin password on when you start it?? I have tried to change the access rights for that specific folder, but it doesn't make it work... |

| | RE: Stop asking administrator password on start of program? This link will show you a tool that you can use to monitor real-time file activity so you can see the registries that are changed during the process of allowing permissions. It’s a complicated process which may or may not work for your program. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/s.../bb896645.aspx Bottom line: UAC will not allow standard users to have access to tools or programs that can change global settings in the computer that could affect other users without administrator rights (password). -- oscar ![]() ....Right click is your very good friend...

| | Re: Stop asking administrator password on start of program? see if the user account is able to run the program by using 'elevated' rights. Instead of clicking on the program to start it - try right clicking the program .... there should be a menu which allows selection of "run as administrator". This may solve the problem.
