Run as an Administrator

 

And then people dare to say administrators a lazy people :+)

For some programs it’s essential that if you use them you are in Administrator mode, for instance PowerShell or Visual Studio. Just because we admins are humans, special once of course we tend to forget things to from time till time and to make sure we don’t need to remember everything we got these little tricks.

Just to make sure you always run the program as an administrator choose properties of the shortcut and choose the compatibility tab. Nearby the bottom you find Priveledge level and a nice option Run this program as an administrator with a checkbox beside it. Mark it and from now on you don’t have to remember.
