hi all
I need some help please.
All of a sudden a number of my programmes are now "run as administrator". I dont know what I did but I cant seem to find a way to unrun them as administrator. I can understand for ccleaner etc but my Napster is also down as run as supervisor and is causing me grief.
Any ideas out there?

If you right click on the program .exe file (NOT the shortcut to the .exe) and select properties. Click the Compatibility tab and at the bottom is a tick box to run as administator that you can untick.0

I'd be wary of making any sweeping changes to the UAC - it is, after all, a security feature.
