Anyway to avoid "run as administrator" prompt for a specific application

I have both a Windows 10 and a Windows 11 PC... I have an application that runs on both. On the Windows 10 PC it runs fine without any startup prompt. On the Windows 11 PC it runs but it always asks for Administrator Permission. Not really more than an irritation, but I don't want to be irritated. On the Windows 11 PC in the right-click context menu there is a little blue dot at the beginning of the "Run as administrator" entry that I can't remove. I've looked at the Compatability tab of the properties and the "run as administrator" is NOT checked. Anyway I can avoid having to always respond to the run-as-administrator-prompt ? (My user account is an administrator on both PC's.) I don't want to remove this administrator security overall.

 

admin password?

You can reset the Admin Password using Windows XP repair; See Here for step by step.
