I have a software that requires admin privileges to run but the standard user needs to work with it. For now I gave the user admin privileges on those computers, but I'm looking for different solutions. I can schedule a task to run on event that the user can trigger, but it runs in the background so the user can't interact with it. any suggestions?

    Hello שימי רוזנברג, Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

    You can right click the software and select Properties and the option "Run this program as an Administrator". Then check if you can run it as non-admin account. User's image
