Can Startup Programs Run As Administrator ?
I have a couple of programs (Logitech Setpoint is one) which need to run as administrator in order to work in some programs (e.g. Visual Studio 2005). They are set to run at start-up, however since I've set them to run as administrator, they don't run.
Is there any way to get these to run at start up?

How Do You Remove Run As Administrator From A Program
I set up a program to "RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR" by right clicking on the program .exe (and/or the program Shortcut) and checking the "run as administrator" option under the compatability tab...to see if the program would run any better. After evaluation, I decided that the "run as administrator" option was probably not necessary for the program, so I went in and removed the checkbox....thinking that the program would no longer use the "run as administrator" option. I was evidently wrong, or I did something wrong, because the program still shows the little "administrator" shield thingy on the icon, and it still gives me a popup verifying that I want it run as administrator. I tried this with several different programs, and I get the same thing...when I want to remove the administrator privs, the program still pops up and asks to run as administrator. Am I going about this the wrong way?? or am I missing something here?? I "skipped" Vista and went right to Windows 7 x64 Ultra from XP, and I have for the most part been very happy with the new OS. I am still getting a feel for it though. Examples: I was trying to solve a problem with the game Left-4-Dead..so I took some advice from these forums and "ran as administrator". I have since solved the problem, and I would like to stop running the program as administrator.

X86 Programs Not Opening Without Administrator Privileges
Yesterday I installed my copy of Windows 7 64bit Pro, which from being a member of MSDNAA. I did a complete backup/format before install. My problem I found out was that I can't run any x86 programs without using Admin Privileges. On the taskbar I have to hold shift+left click and select "run as administrator", where I then click yes and the program runs. This happens for all x86 programs, at first I had thought it was just firefox until I experimented more, and the programs I can list are: Internet Explorer, AVG, Realplayer, Itunes, Digsby, others. What happens when I start an x86 program is that it looks like its going to load(spins the loading circle) and puts the task in taskmgr but thats where it stops. It doesn't take up cpu processes, only a small amount of memory depending on the program of course. Has anyone seen this issue, or know of a fix it would be greatly appreciated. I've searched around and seen another with the issue on Vista 64bit SP1, and with no solution.

Install Programs Without Administrator Account Or Password
I support a client and she can't have the administrator password for this PC as her boss has plenty of restricted files on the drives of this PC. He'd like her to be able to install apps though.  Even if I restrict the rights to the folders he wants to secure, she could with admin rights give herself rights to those folders. Also he tends to toss files everywhere so I can't expect the secured folders to be the only ones he needs restricted. Can I give a person rights to install apps on a standalone Windows 7 enterprise workstation without giving them admin rights?Â

Startup Programs Not Opening During Startup
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I have CPU-Z, Hardware Monitor Pro and Resource Monitor shortcuts in the startup folder. If I go to MSCONFIG I can see that the items are there to be started during startup. What am I doing wrong that will not allow these programs to start up?

Run A Program At Startup Without Using An Admin Password
I have a minor technical question I would love help on. I have the UAC on and log in as a standard user for protection. There are a few programs that I would like to run automatically when windows starts that require a password EVERY time I start windows, or if I select them manually. Is there any reason certain programs due to their permissions need an admin password to run and other don't? I could not find the difference looking in the security section of properties comparing it with a program that runs as an admin. HELP! I would like to run these programs automatically as windows boots without typing in the admin password for each program.

Edit Startup Programs
I know about MSCONFIG. the problem is, when you use MSCONFIG to deselect programs from starting up, you force your computer into "Safemode". I once used a ms command that allowed me to disable enable all programs that start up with windows, other than MSCONFIG. It did not force my windows into Safemode. which command is it that allows you to disable programs from starting up with windows, BESIDES MSCONFIG ? anyone know.?

Cannot Block Startup Programs
in windows vista I could block startup programs i didn't want using up system resources, but with windows 7 I cant find a way of doing that, I understand its always a good idea to have normal startup mode instead of selective in misconfiguration. but in vista I could simply block programs in component services but the ones I want to block are not even listed in windows 7! is this the wrong place to look or is blocking startup programs not an option in windows 7?

Run Different Language Programs
How do i keep the OS in English, but run another program as a different language There should be an option to have a program always run as a set language I would like to be able to run an English, Japanese and Korean program side by side, not reset the computer just to run one app. I Know about applocal, but some times it does not cut it and the program fails to run properly. Windows should let me run a program from any country, not just one at a time.

Nothing in control panel seems to apply so how is it done now ?

User Accounts And Startup Programs UAC
I'm setting up standard user accounts for the other family members. When I log in on those non-administrator accounts I get multiple flashing icons in the taskbar. Clicking on these leads to the UAC requesting permission to allow changes to the computer. There also is a box to input the administrator password to allow the program to startup. These are mostly ASUS programs, like TurboV, Q-Button, EPU, stuff like that. I don't need these programs starting for anyone but myself, so how can I selectively start these programs so the other users don't get the popup's on login?

Sound Drivers = Only Able To Run Programs As Admin
When I install the drivers for my HTO Striker 7.1 and restart to complete driver installation, suddenly, I can only run anything if I right click and Run as Administrator.. not even Firefox. Its annoying to have to get the gray User Access Control screen everytime I want to do something, as well as having to right click and left click just to start a program. HTO Striker 7.1 drivers on their site are listed as being good for Windows 7 x64. What could be happening here? Has anyone had this problem?

The Ribbon Interface Will Be In ALL Programs That Run On Win7
It's called the Scenic Ribbon and you can already see it in Paint, Wordpad and Movie Maker. The Ribbon originated in Office 2007 and has been improved even more in Office 2010. Untill now it has only been a part of Office however starting with Windows 7 the Ribbon will be a part of the Operating System. That means any programmer will be able to add the ribbon to his program instead of the current menu bar. Microsoft envisions a future where all programs running on Windows will have a ribbon instead of the menu bar.
