Windows 10: How do I force a program to run as admin, on a standard user account, without a prompt,...

Basically I want a program to always run as admin, but I want to do this without triggering the password prompt. I want to avoid using /savecred because as I understand it, this would allow a user to use that power on any program. I need it isolated to the specific programs I allow. Is this possible?

Running Programs for a standard user

Hello

You mentioned checking the the box 'Run as Administrator'

This is the opposite of what I require ,I wanted to avoid running programs as admin . By unchecking 'Run As Administrator' I am still getting an admin credential verification prompt

Any further suggestions ?

 

How do make programs run at startup on standard user account?

Sorry for lately reply lads (or ladies lol) but between work and gym, didn't have a chance to mess about with things till last night.

Okay, I've tried...

1. Elevated shortcuts in shell:start up and shell:common startup
2. Task schedular -- standard user account doesn't have rights to create tasks so I had to run the Schedular as admin and checked Run whether user is logged on or not
3. Created a Local User Group and assigned it full permission to both programs' exe files and added the standard user account to said group

But none of them worked *Sad

If it helps, the programs I'm trying to startup are PIA_manager and MSIAfterburner. They both (seem to) need to run at elevated access level. Right now, I'm just starting them up manually as admin...doesn't llook like there's any way around this, is there?

 

Running Programs for a standard user

Last Christmas I had purchased a Windows 10 laptop for my teenage niece , through experience I realized that it was not wise to set her up as an administrator which could potentially allow her to install viruses/malware/adware/spyware

So I created for her a standard account with Teamviewer and a local Admin account so that I can install programs for her , remotely on the fly should she wish . I have since installed several programs one including a DJ software known as FL studio (Fruityloops
) . The challenge now however is that every-time she's logged on as a standard user and clicks on the FL Studio application shortcut , windows annoyingly prompts my niece to enter Admin credentials to run the program

My Question is , how can I set up or change the machine so that my niece who is set up as a 'standard user' can run programs without having to know admin credentials

I do not see the logic in blocking a harmless program run under a standard user account

I assumed this would be a simple change to UAC , though I have not been able to run the FL studio as a standard user - Very annoying
