How does one run command prompt as admin, please? It seems I used to
know, but can't remember.
 
I knew I'd feel stupid for asking ;) My problem was that I'd gotten so
used to calling up a command prompt window via Run, that I'd forgotten
where to find the shortcut (in Accessories) that would allow me to
right-click it. Duh! Although you didn't give me the shortcut's
location, your answer did somehow jog my aging memory into recollection,
so thanks!

You don't have to hunt around for it. Just open the Start Orb, type cmd in
the search box and up it pops. Search from Start is a great way to find
what stuff.
 
David,

You can input things like cmd into Start menu's search bar
to find/use it quickly. Any program. Usually by the third or
fourth letter entered you'll see it in the results. You can also
right click a program there and select run as administrator.
For cmd, I right clicked it and added it to my quick launch,
makes it easy to get to. Of course, you can right click about
anything and add it to the Start Menu or Quick Launch.

Of course. Thanks. Where is my brain these daze?

And I've just pinned it to my Start Menu, where I (hopefully) will never
lose it again ;)
