hi,

 

I use a schedulled task that launches the program I want (here TestExecute) "with high privileges".

If you want to launch it manualy, you could create a shortcut that launches the task manager for this particular task.

    Hi   ,

      What do you mean by task manager in "create a shortcut that launches the task manager for this particular task"?

      Can you give me an example?

     

    Thanks!

      Hi Yurik, sorry for answering in late,

       

      create an empty windows shortcut, edit its properties, then in "target" write something like in the "shortcut" tab:

      C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /run /tn andHereTheNameOfTheSchedulledTask

       

       

      then click on "advanced..." and enable the checkbox "execute as administrator"
