    Add 'Run as Administrator' to WinKey + R Run window?


    I know this question has been asked before but there may have been a patch or similar update...

    Is there a way to add the checkbox that allows you to run a program 'As Administrator' to the WinKey + R Run Dialog Box?

    It's available if you use 'Run' via the Task Manager, but not via the keyboard shortcut.

    Also, the CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER method doesn't seem to work via the Run window either...

    Appreciate your assistance here.

    Try cmd in the run box - you can see Admin... in the title bar.

    Also you should get a UAC prompt after that key combo if UAC is enabled.

    (I've just added this for clarity for anyone reading:
