Am I really in "Run as administrator" mode?
Hi,
I) I have a machine with Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit. When I run my applications as administrator, I do not see that "shield" sign on their icons as I see on my other machine (Win7 Ultimate 32bit) showing that the application is running in administrator mode. How can I tell whether my application is actually running in this mode? Why doesn't that sign appear on opened applications icons?
II) The main problem behind the above issue that I have is that I use "Altap Salamander" which is a file navigator. It runs perfectly on my Win7 32 machine. It has a weird problem on this 64-bit machine. For example, when I go to Windows\System32\drivers sub-directory, I cannot see the "etc" folder and some files in 'drivers' directory! while I can do that in windows explorer. That's why I suspected that this application could not be running in administrator mode as I expect. I'm not sure whether it could be related to running it on a 64-bit machine, but it sounds strange as it works quite fine upto 'drivers' directory.
One note: my 64-bit machine is part of a domain and my 32-bit one is not!
Thanks,
Mehrdad
