You should have it installed and able to open WM in less than five minutes


Actually it takes 60 seconds to do it. You have spent hours and hours on this
massive thread, when if you had the right info in the first place WM can be
reactivated on your computer in less than 60 seconds, I only said five minutes
to give leeway for reading time.


How can that be when I have no choice of "Run as Administrator" when I right
click on the command prompt? That choice is not there. All I can choose is:


Mark
Copy
Paste
Select
Scroll and
Find.


That's funny, and No! I'm not making fun of you in any way, I've just never
seen anybody interpret it that way.
You sir actually clicked on the gui of the command prompt, and that's not what
it meant at all.

How do I get "Run as Administrator" to show up in the right-click dropdown
window for the command prompt?


As mentioned when you go to # 3 on that local tutorial:
ReWinMail_tutorial.html
When it says to right click on it....

~Start Menu All Programs Accessories
~Right click on that Command Prompt 'shortcut itself' that you see there in the
Accessories menu! and then when you click Run As Admin then it opens up the
command prompt window, and then you continue with #4 on that tutorial, and btw,
that's where you can do what you did posted above to right click the gui and
there then yes you can use 'Paste' to put in the next line:
cd%USERPROFILE%\Downloads\TutReWinMail\
(where here of course you needed to have saved the Win74umsZip.zip place to
your Downloads folder in the first place.)

But follow that tutorial.

Anyway, seriously, 60 seconds flat to get WinMail to start up if you have read
and follow the instructions correctly. Yes I think the tutorial may be over
worded which can get confusing, but I think when techs try to say things in
detailed ways to be able to reach the most people, things get overworded and
then becomes almost confusing, but in hindsight once you do it, you will
see.... 60 seconds to open WinMail

Any problems, ask your question over there


Really, you should ask these questions over there since you have so many people
that actually use and have it installed and working there.

good luck
