if P2R has Admin rights, opening websites doesn't work

[markpalmos]

Hello all,
I have just noticed that if I give Administative rights to the Push2Run app, my actions which are to open a website do not work. If I disable Admin rights, they work again.

I assume this is a known issue, or is some sort of windows limitation, but I have not read anything about that, could not find it in a search for Administrator + Website, so thought I should post something so hopefully there will be an official word about it

Thanks Rob.
Ok cool

I was wanting to be able to open Command Prompt with admin rights and not have the popup to give permission, but it's not the end of the world. I suppose I could, if I knew how, add a delay and then a command to OK the popup... but not super important

yes, MS has its rules

You can setup Push2Run to open the command prompt in admin mode without the prompt, but to do that you need to be running Push2Run in admin mode itself. This, unfortunately, blocks you from opening a weblink thru a browser as above.

However, I've done some more testing, and believe I have a workaround.

Here is a Push2Run card, which can do a Google search for a variable phrase while Push2Run is running with admin privileges.

you may need to fiddle with it to serve your purpose

Great Rob, that's very kind of you, I'll give it a whirl later... Cheers, Mark.
