Just wondering if there is an easy way, (win 10 ) without lowering the UAC control in general
I was checking around, and the few links I found go through a lengthy process .
 
Add your program to the task scheduler. Give it permission to run with the highest privileges. Once you have it in task scheduler you can launch it from there to make sure it works as you intend. If it does you can create a shortcut directly;
schtasks /run /TN "{Name of task}"

I even resisted the obvious add the program to /etc/sudoers joke. :)
 
The easiest way is to use runas with the /savecred switch but be forewarned that any executable can be run with the saved credentials, sort of defeating the purpose of UAC. One secure method that I have found is by using the Standard User Analyzer tool and if this dude can explain it so well in a few minutes it is not bad.
 
Thanks for the replys.
I had a brain fart , I only just realized that lowering the uac slider does¨nt actually turn it off , it just stops the notifications which is what I wanted to do. :facepalm:
