I noticed that on Windows 8's Start screen, I could right click a Windows legacy program (A program which runs on Windows XP, Vista and 7), and I could run it as Administrator.
However, whenever I clicked on a Windows 8 Modern UI or a Metro app, I didn't have that option.
So here are my questions:-
- Why can't I run the Modern UI apps as an Administrator?
- Does it make any difference as far as security is concerned?

4This is by design. These applications should not need to be ran as administrators since they cannot do anything that requires it. – Ramhound – 2012-11-05T11:29:52.747
