    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 ?

    a program on windows 10 can only be started with "Run as an adminstrator"

    Hi Jaap,

    If a program is configured to Always Run as an Administrator, there is a possibility that the program is protected from unauthorized access.

    For us to isolate your issue and provide an appropriate resolution, we would like to know the following:

    • Is the issue isolated only on a specific program?
    • Are you using an administrator account?

    In the meantime, we have steps that we can try to allow a program to run in standard mode. Here are the steps below:

    • Type in the "program name" in the Search box.
    • Right-click on the program and select Open file location.
    • Right-click on the program and click Properties.
    • Click the Compatibility tab.
    • Under the Settings section, uncheck Run this program as an administrator.

    Let us know if you need anything else.
