creating new user account types or allowing a user to run executables

How can I configure a new user account type with permissions in between standard and administrator in Windows 10? Or, how can I allow a user to run executables without being an administrator in Windows 10?

I am an investment advisor. Daily, an admin support person needs to download an executable file with my client's account information, run the executable, and then import it in order to update our software with client account info. This was not a problem
until this weekend when my computer decided to upgrade itself to Windows 10. Now, when the support person tries to run the executable, they are blocked and an administrator has to enter a password to enable this. It is not practical for me to enable that
daily. I need to allow the support person to be able to run executable files, but I do not want to give them full administrator privileges allowing them to access everything on the computer. The name of the executable files changes daily (based on the date),
so enabling it for one file on one day does not fix the problem for the next day.

Can someone please help me to set up this user so that he can run executable files (with different names every day) but without allowing full administrator privileges?

 

How to allow a program to always run as administrator on standard user without always typing in the admin user password

Hi all. Does anyone have a solution to this problem. We have windows 10. Our child has a standard account and both parents have admin account.

There is one educational software for primary school mathematics which only functions if run as administrator. Meaning, we have to type in admin password every time the child opens this application.

Is there a way to always allow a single application to run as administrator on a standard user account without having to put in the password everytime.

We don't want to change the child's account from standard to admin.

I would appreciate any suggestions please

Hi,

I realize that you are facing the issue in user account.

As per your query, I like to inform you that; we cannot create a user account in Windows 10, with the features you have mentioned above.

We can have only two types of user account in Windows 10;

• 
  Standard account: If you are logged on to Windows with a standard account, you can do everything that you can do with an administrator account, but actions such as installing software or changing security settings,
  Windows might ask you to provide a password for an administrator account.
  

• 
  Administrator account: If you are logged on to Windows with a administrator account, you can do everything, even the actions such as installing software or changing security settings and control other user accounts.
  

I suggest you to send a feedback to Microsoft regarding this feature. Type
Feedback on Search bar and go to Feedback app.

I hope the given information is helpful. Kindly write back to us for further assistance on Windows.

Thank you.
