Try holding Ctrl+Shift while clicking on the icon.

Or start a shortcut instead of the actual program, with this setup:

P.S. can't test these myself, as I have no limited user account; please share with us your findings!

Try to use the favorite option 'With "Run as" dialog'.

Thank you, joby_toss.

I assume, this should open a program in admin mode directly. At the moment I cannot find a program that shows whether it is running in admin mode or not. So I do not know if it works.

A good idea. But if you have some more programs it might become a bit inconvenient with different shortcuts.

Thanks Karol,

When activated that option a message appears after clicking the favorite, the program cannot be find or so.

Many thanks again
