Sheridan Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 We've got an old Macromedia application that appears to still work ok in Windows 10, except that Windows 10 has decided it has to be run as administrator (the executable has the shield icon on it) It doesn't matter whether you have UAC on or off, it still will only run as administrator - which causes a problem as it doesn't recognise your mapped drives when it does run! Is there any way to find out why W10 thinks it needs to run this as an administrator, or force it to run it as a normal user?
Tirito Posted July 11, 2016 Posted July 11, 2016 I had a similar issue a while ago. Easy to do and worth a try. I will PM you a link to the guide I used.

Thanks for that, but that still causes the network drives to disappear as its running it as an admin. However I did manage to find this and after a reboot it now seems to work!
