    How to avoid "admin rights needed" during startup, for old utilities?


    I'm still using some older utilities that load at bootup. They trigger the "load as administrator" routine, which is an annoying interruption that requires a user click. Is there a way to force Win10 to auto-load programs (either specific ones, or alternatively any program) without user intervention?

    (Running Win10-Pro 1909; the latest available for my ThinkPad)

    :)

    admin rights keep disappearing!?!!

    Hi guys,

    I am actually having a problem at work that our IT department hasn't been able to figure out. I am supposed to be a member of the admin group. We are on a domain. The problem is that everytime I reboot the computer I loose my admin rights(no longer in the administrator group) and just become a normal user again. I have tried googling this and didn't get to many results.
    I believe IT is just giving me local admin rights, not admin rights for the whole domain.

    Any suggestions?

    EDIT: It is on Windows XP Pro.

    Startup profile without admin rights?

    I recently got me a Sapphire GTO2 card and bios flashed and overclocked it to a little below 850 XT PE levels. I made a profile in ATITool which is loaded at Windows start-up via registry key. Works like a charm, but I have a little problem:

    In day-to-day use I work without admin rights. Now when ATITool starts, it says it needs to "access the Kernel Mode Driver" and can't do that without admin rights.

    Maybe some of you had the same problem and found a solution. As I see it, I need to:

    a) find out how I can grant access to that "Kernel Mode Driver" in the Windows XP group policies, or
    b) find another tool that can overclock the card without admin rights, or
    c) overclock the card "permanently" in the bios. Is that even possible?

    Any ideas? Many thanks in advance.
