    Windows 11 Run Dialog won't launch specific applications


    So far, I found that I can no longer launch Notepad and Windows Terminal via the run dialog with the command "notepad" and "wt" respectively, which previously worked. Now, it just results in the mouse briefly switching to the "Working in background"-cursor and back. Other commands, such as "cleanmgr" and "dfrgui" still work perfectly. I tried SFC and DISM checks, which did not solve the problem.

    :)

    How to always allow administrator permissions for a specific application

    Hi Lyon,

    Windows 10 gives users the ability to customize how they run applications. We suggest that you follow the steps below on how to grant administrator permission to a specific application:

    • Click the Windows icon on your Windows 10 screen that will open the list of applications. Right click on the specific application that you wish to have an admin permission, click the
      More and click Open file location.
    • A new window will open to the location of the program. Right-click on the program and click
      Properties from the pop-up menu.
    • In the Properties window, click the Shortcut tab and then click
      Advanced.
    • In the Advanced Properties window, check the box next to
      Run as administrator
      and click OK.
    • The program will now open in administrator mode when you click the shortcut from the Start menu. Repeat the steps above for other desired applications.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
