Allow a program to run in Standard user

Hi all

I have a problem, as stated above.

I have currently the program has installed in an administrator account and I would like another user who is a Standard user in the computer to use the program without entering the administrator password to run the program.

Is it possible?

Reinstall program to make it available to all users "work" but perhaps you only want certain users to be able to run the program.

You can use the command runas with the "savecred" option to create a shortcut to the program - you must enter the credentials of the administrator at least once for Windows to Save Credpickers and then you would set but there is a possibility of the user can understand it and then be able to run any program as administrator.

Here are some examples of how to implement that:

http://www.howtogeek.com/124087/how-to-create-a-shortcut-that-lets-a-standard-user-run-an-application-as-administrator/

https://www.maketecheasier.com/standard-users-run-program-Admin-rights/

You may reach the goal without "savecred" using a task scheduled to run the desired program:

There are some third-party programs that you can use if you want to install (not tested):

If you do a Google search on something like:

allow standard users to run as Administrator without password

You will get a lot of ideas but the sounds of the awkward set of ideas.

It looks like a some of them present a potential security risk if the user no Admin numbers how it's done.

  • programs that run on multiple users

    Windows Vista Business like computer 2 users are able to run a program with the same settings.  How?

    If installed by an administrator (and made available to all users, this option is made available by the programmers of this program) then it will happen - but it will be available for all users (unless you change the permissions on a per-user basis).  Each user will be able to adjust the parameters and the next user will start with these settings.  Remember that this will always be possible depending on the program - in some cases, it should be separtely installled for each user (in which case the parameters vary by user).  This information is usually not on the lid of the box of the program so it's something that you learn as you go through the process to see what options are available and what you want to choose among these options.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Standard user cannot access program (event id 882) installed on windows 7 home 64 bit.

    It's driving me crazy.  Whenever a user attempts to open a program already installed, nothing happens.  The event viewer displays the event id 882.  The laptop is running windows 7 home so it doesn't have the local security policy that I can change.  How to disable this check or allow the program is accessible by standard users?

    I solved the problem.  I downloaded and installed gpedit.msc following the instructions here - http://www.askvg.com/how-to-enable-group-policy-editor-gpedit-msc-in-windows-7-home-premium-home-basic-and-starter-editions/

    Once this was done, I was able to change the policy to allow the user to access the new application.

    I'm testing some applications for compatibility in my company on this machine.  I'm currently trying to use the "Standard User Analyzer" tool to determine the shims that I apply to make these applications work correctly.

    Here's what happens:

    -I run the Standard User Analyzer application

    -J' have 'Browse' to 'c:\programs\app.exe' (we have the applications installed in this folder instead of Program Files)

    -J' I uncheck the option 'Elevate' and launch the application.

    -J' have some operations within the application to allow the scanner to Standard users determine the best course of action.

    -J' I quit the application.

    Hi all

    I struggled to find a solution to this problem on my Windows 7 x 64 Enterprise, but then meet Peter prompted me to try 3 different freeware software: ContextEdit, ShellExView and ShellMenuView.

    Unfortunately, none of these tools has helped in my case.
    But I suspect a software backup program "Memeo backup" (which came with Seagate USB drive) and found the context menu Manager in the registry, it has exported for backup and removed the key.

    This solved my problem of: impossible to launch a program with run as different user (or administrator).

    Matt,

    Since you don't have a Vista Home Premium, I found another article that describes a way to get around it to make a registry change.

    The following Web site:
    http://www.eCoustics.com/PCW/HOWTO/140134

    Vista Home Premium is not the Group Policy Editor. To make the changes in this version, you must change the registry. Before making any changes to the registry, back it up following the instructions in "block Cookies for spying, but keep the most useful" (scroll down to the area of blue text at the bottom of the page).

    With your backup of the registry in place, click Start, type regedit and press ENTER. In the tree on the left pane, navigate to Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. With the icon system selected in the left pane, double-click on ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin in the right pane. Change the data value to 0, then click on OK. You should see the effect immediately (no restart required).

    Not sure if this will help, but thought that I have it send your way.

    Thank you

  • How can I give some privileges to a standard user account that they can access some programs without being stopped for the admin password?

    I have two accounts on my Windows Vista computer:
     
    (1.) an account admin and one

    I would like to give to the standard user account privileges, so they can access programs like spybot, without needing an admin password (he asked generally the password update spybot).

    I have read the menu permissions by right-clicking the spybot .exe file, click the securities tab and the Advanced button.
    I tried to give full control to the standard user, but still maintains he ask for an admin password.

    is there someone who can provide assistance so that certain programs accessible by standard account, but others not?

  • that allows standard users change ppp settings, removing UAC admin fast pwd to DPIscaling.exe

    I am currently using windows vista ultimate 64-bit with an installed nvidia geforce 8800 gtx card. I'm the ADM on the machine, with the standards users who connect it. My account of adm does not have the problem. I'm trying to find a way to allow standard users on the machine to have the ability to change the ppp settings.

    The path of the file is C:\Windows\System32\DpiScaling.exe

    I tried to use the solution listed on this site: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/window-on-windows/?p=635

    and used the Application Compatibility Toolkit.  I used a lot of different options, the 32-bit version, 64-bit, different boxes, without success. When you click right on the file properties and click on the Compatibility tab, it says:
    Cannot be set on this program compatibility modes because it is part of the Windows version.

    I have a standard users also granted full control of the executable, and if the logged-on user account, he got always invited him to enter the administrator credentials. I understand that this only gives the user access to the file and not what the file does.

    I need to find a solution to allow standard users on the computer to change the DPI settings without the need of the admin password.  While looking for solutions here and on the site of regular microsoft (support.microsoft.com) support, all I could find are methods that disable the guests of UAC elevation and ways to disable UAC completely.    http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/w7security/thread/0364515a-301e-47C5-AF99-39347b83c6b4-je don't want to do that.  I even tried and the standard user has always invited to enter an admin password.  I don't want to disable UAC or the guests of elevation, surprisingly these guests don't mind.   The computer is set to high resolution and need to continually change the DPI setting to enable the second monitor (my HDTV) text output in a format that is clear and correct.  The reason why we have change back is because the cursor of the mouse in the PC video games being played here on disappears when the DPI is set to what higher than normal / default. So before any game is played, the DPI settings in windows settings must be changed to the default / normal.

    Since I was the user only administrator on the machine, I am concerned when other users would like to play their games. but can not, because I am not present.  I want to be the only Admin account on the machine.  Bad things tend to happen when I allow other users are administrators on the machine.

  • Account of Vista standard user will not open programs that more, can only open with the administrator account

    Whenever I try to open a program on a standard user account, a window opens asking "what program you want to use to open this with?", which is of course less useless.  I can open all programs with the administrator account, but then I can't access files of the standard user...  What happened all of a sudden; We had a malware infection that is now deleted and who may well have caused the problem.  If I use the system restore, the malware will return?  Prefer not to use SR if there is a better solution...

  • Standard user needs access to the protected admin program

    My older games, Mabinogi online, but it requires my password each time until he could play. Is anyway around this without giving my password? This means that yes there is a problem of trust involved. We have just recovered from a massive virus infestation and do not want a repetition.

    Hello
    In addition to the response of Mick Murphy, check this:
     
    Step 1: To run the game or any program as an administrator, try the following steps.
    1. right click on the game launch icon or program, and then click Properties.
    2 click the Compatibility tab and choose "run this program as an administrator", under the privilege level.
    3. apply the changes.
    4. open the icon and provide the administrator credentials and keep identification information.
    5. Once opened the game the next time the user will be able to continue without entering credentials.
     
    Step 2: Install the program or game for all users.
    A lot of programs or games have the option to choose to install the game or program for all users on the computer.
    1. install the game using the Setup file.
    2. follow the instructions in the wizard; Select for all users on the computer.
    3 complete the installation.
     
    Step 3: Copy the shortcut icon of game launch on the standard user desktop.
    1 copy the shortcut icon of launching a game from the user admin account and paste it into the Office of standard user account. The location to paste the copied icon is: C:\Users\\Desktop
    2. run the game and check the result.
     
    I hope this helps.
