    How do I change program from running only with "Run As Administrator"


    Windows 10 ver. 1803

    I have an installed program on a client computer that will only launch if I "Run as Administrator" even though the user account belongs to the Administrator Group. How do I change this without having to uninstall the program?
    Thank you,

    Hello oreos,

    If you like, you could use the method in the tutorial below to create an elevated shortcut to run the program without getting a UAC prompt.
