| | Vista Right-Click Context Menu Items... I have created a RunAs application that lets me perform the functions that I was able to in Windows XP by right-clicking an application and choosing my runas option. The problem is that the standard method of adding a right-click context menu does not display the context menu on a right-click context for any ADUC shortcuts. This means that I am not able to actually use the tool on what it was intended for. Does anybody know of a way to add a right-click context item to the ADUC tools shortcuts. Below is the registry entry that I used. [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Vista RunAs] [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Vista RunAs\command] @="\\\"C:\\Program Files\\Involta\\Vista RunAs\\vista_runas.exe\\\" \\\"%1\\\"" |

I'll take a SWAG at the answer, though... my guess would be that Vista's enhanced security posture, compared to XP's, prevents what you're trying to do. Again, that's just a SWAG. Lang |
