Remember the admin credentials for a specific executable

Hello,

I have one executable which will be installed on client's machine. This exe requires Admin access to perform some of its task.

The general user will not have a Admin access everytime, so during its first use if admin allows its access, I want this access to be preserved forever, even after system is restarts.

Is there any way with which I can do this?

Thanks

Dev

    Hi Dev

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Create a Desktop icon for that software

    Right click the Desktop icon and choose properties

    Select the Compatibility tab of the resulting dialog and turn on the option to run that software as administrator.

    That software should then always run with administrator privileges without the need for a password.
