1487641 2022-07-31 06:02:00 There was a time when "Run as Administrator " appeared on the Drop down menu of the properties that appeared if you Right clicked on the desktop. In Windows 11 I cannot get this to happen. I've looked on Google and I am afraid I cannot get their suggestions to work or they are way over my head.

I think that under Win10 there was an easy way to install this but I cannot find how. Anyone able to help please?

1487643 2022-07-31 06:23:00 Ok, is that the option to "open in Terminal"? Bryan (147)
1487644 2022-07-31 08:02:00 Ok, is that the option to "open in Terminal"? Nope, Run as Administrator. 2nd Option down / Right clicked on shortcut. The only time it shows ( as it always should do) is if a shortcut or exe or some other option is available to open as admin. Simply right clicking on the desktop wont do anything as in reality the desktop is only a folder in the windows system.

Example a link to a exe (program is shortcut to Winmerge on the desktop)
