From the site someone recommended:

"Start Menu == All Programs == Accessories
Right click on Command Prompt
MenuPick "Run as administrator..." from the Alternate menu presented."

I can't click on the Command Prompt to run as Administrator in W 8 as there
is no MenuPick to "Run as administrator." '


You could always just create a shortcut to cmd.exe and check the "run as
administrator" box in the "advanced" section of the shortcut properties.

The below info worked. I will make a shortcut for it. It also works on
Vista, though isn't needed. I bet this code goes back to the first Windows
PC.

Try entering 'command' in the search box, r-click on the 'command
prompt' choice that comes up.
