How can I make a program permanently run as admin when the Compatibility tab is missing?
In Windows 10, if I open properties of devenv.exe (Visual Studio 2015) there is no way I can set the "Run As Administrator".. But some other programs still have tab "Compatibility" in their properties where you can do that..
Whats the difference? And is there a way to set Run As Administrator on devenv.exe ?
Right click on the .exe and there should be an option to Troubleshoot Compatibility. This worked for me last time i ran into this on Win10.
EDIT
I'm not at my Windows 10 box now, but found the step by step instructions here
- right-click devenv.exe and select "Troubleshoot compatibility".
- select "Troubleshoot program"
- check "The program requires additional permissions"
- click "Next", click "Test the program..."
- wait for the program to launch
- click "Next"
- select "Yes, save these settings for this program"
- click "Close"
