Thanks for that. However, where does my focus have to be when I hit the aps
key. I tried doing it from the desktop with nothing focussed but looking
down the context menu there did not seem to be anything appropriate. I also
hit the letter A after having activated the aps key and that didn't do
anything.

Hi peter,

However, you can run apps and the like in an elevated admin mode from your
standard win 7 ccount.  Simply hit apps key, then the letter A.  Say yes to
the UAC prompt, or provide the password.

 

Regards,

Barry.
