I have W7Pro .. with all current updates, V14 with all current updates and I never seem to be able to use the "run as administrator" function. It is almost (99.9% of the time) greyed out...
It is becoming a pain to have to use other facilities to execute a program .. is there a solution that can be implemented so this is not necessary

Run As Administrator is only greyed out if V is already running as administrator.
In this case,
Run/Execute should be identical to
Run As Administrator.
To confirm, that V is indeed running as Admin, run the Task Manager (right-click on the Windows Task Bar a select
Start Task Manager), select the
Processes tab and enable "
Show processes from all users". Then click on the
View menu, select
Select Columns and check "
User Account Control (UAC) Virtualization" (towards the bottom of the list) and click OK.
If V is running as Admin, the UAC column in the Task Manager (next to V.exe) should say
"Not Allowed".
