| | Run as administrator Hi I have a game that when I click run it takes a few minutes for it to start even though it is there running in Task Manager. I have found that if I right click the game icon and tell it to Run As Administrator it runs straight away with no delay at all. So is there a way to get it to do this every time without right clicking it? Note, I am the only user of the PC and thought I was logged in as the Admin. |

| | Re: Run as administrator Try right clicking and go to Properties. Under Compatibility, there is a switch to set so that it can run as Administrator. Sometimes it's not available, but it's worth a shot to see if it works. -- Dustin Harper dharper@vistarip.com http://www.vistarip.com -- "Uncle Nobby" <unc@invalid.com> wrote in message news:e4Z8CRAjHHA.2368@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... > Hi > > I have a game that when I click run it takes a few minutes for it to start > even though it is there running in Task Manager. > I have found that if I right click the game icon and tell it to Run As > Administrator it runs straight away with no delay at all. > So is there a way to get it to do this every time without right clicking > it? > > Note, I am the only user of the PC and thought I was logged in as the > Admin. |
