Run As Administrator not always working?
I have dealt with this for about 10 years now since Server 2003/Windows XP. Just now getting around to addressing this. If this isn't the right place, I'd appreciate a link to the right place. Have a Server 2019 domain with 13 workstations all running Windows 11 Pro. Workstation user only have user access rights. On occasion I'll need to run something, such as services.msc for example with admin rights. On some workstations I can right-click services, select Run As Administrator, enter the domain admin credentials and can then stop/start/change services as needed. Yet on other workstations the Run As Administrator doesn't work. It runs services.msc. But I'm not prompted for admin credentials and can't start/stop/change the service. What can I do to make it work so I don't have to waste time logging of the normal user to log in with a domain admin account? Note that I do have and use group policies on the server. I've never "knowingly" set any policy that would prevent the Run As Administrator for working. I also have WSUS set up and it's configured with SSL if that matters. Thanks for any feedback on this. - Carl
