I have several portable EXE tools that I need to "Run as Administrator".
For convenience I have desktop shortcuts to the EXE files.
If I Right-Click the shortcut > Run as Administrator ... am I running the exe as-admin or just the shortcut, as-admin.
Would appreciate any guidance :)
The app will run as admin.
You might want to look at this tutorial:
Elevated Command Prompt Shortcut
You can do that for these shortcuts too.

Thank you for the succinct answer
Elsewhere in this forum I have received help with my first use of the command prompt.
Your suggestion to Brinks Elevated Command Prompt Shortcut tutorial, is extremely timely.

Thank you for your help
You are welcome.
I see your thread where you are working with command prompt
Don't tell anyone !UsernameIssues said:
That thread was my first cmd-prompt activity.
I would rather be well informed than to be half-cocked and get things wrong, or worse cause damage through my own ignorance.
I just wish I had more free time to follow up on my threads, like finalize the thread with "what I did" solutions.
Nothing more disappointing for newbies (me included in that) than a topic that fits my problem only to find no follow up by the OP.
Today started at 4:50am, its now 11:42am and I havent started $$$ work yet.
