1. Using the shortcut keys: By holding down the Control and Shift keys, you simplying double clicking on the program that you want to run as administrator. You might be prompted for UAC. If so, simpily select “Yes”.

2. Right clicking on the program: When you right click on a program file (e.g. exe file), there will be a “Run as Administrator” option in the popup menu.
