There are several programs on the PC (Windows 10 Enterprise, clean installation) I'm using which I want to make available to other, non-admin users. I've enabled "Run this program as an administrator" for all users, but UAC still kicks in and asks the non-admin users to log in as administrators in order to be able to run the program.
When these prompts appear, there's no "Always ask before opening this file" checkbox which I could check.
Programs in question are pretty much innocuous things like Scratch2 offline editor, Kodu Game Lab, etc. The publisher is set for all applications, and they are all unblocked.
I've done the exact same thing on 10 other PCs with Windows 7, and everything went as expected (programs starting normally, no admin login needed).
Why does this happen, and how can I make these programs available for all users on this PC, without disabling the UAC? Am I missing a new Windows 10 security / UAC related setting?
I guess I could try and install them to a different folder. Maybe that would solve it for some of these. As for the others (since they have to be installed in Program Files and Program Files (x86)), I'll try what you suggested, and give special rights. Here's hoping there's no writing to the registry. Thanks. – FiddlingAway – 2017-02-23T16:53:05.813
