View Full Version : How to remove "run as"


Leo Dean
February 9th 04, 06:01 AM
I know I must have enabled this and now I can't turn it back off. When I
click to open a program or any other application, I have to uncheck a prompt
in a popup named "run as". Could someone please help me disable this? It
also appears twice when I boot up.

Please and thank you,

leo

Make your selection and put a check in the little box that says "remember
this action", or something to that effect.

What are you clicking on? A shortcut? If so, right-click on the shortcut
and modify its properties to remove runas in the command (Target field)

Sometimes searching at Microsoft's support site
(http://support.microsoft.com/) yields some helpful articles. A search on
"runas" for Windows XP only turned up 9 articles, one of which was:

HOW TO: Enable and Use the "Run As" Command When Running Programs in Windows

Hi Ramesh,

This is a specific message which comes from two isolated issues (that I know
of). That said, line 111 should fix it. :o)

Is there an open there as well.

IF SO
Type regedit in Start Run
Navigate to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell
and delete the default value (which will be runas). Do NOT delete the =
subkey of the same name.

IF NOT
Type regedit in Start Run
Navigate to=20
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\exefile\shell
[it get different from here]
Edit menu - New - Key
name it open
select the key open
Edit menu - New - Key
name it command
select the key command then double click (default) in the other pane
enter exactly
"%1" %*
if you get confused runas has an identical command.
