>>You can right-click on the shortcut and select Run as Administrator (or set
>>the setting in the properties for the shortcut and run as admin).  I think
>>that either way, it will make you enter the credentials of an administrator
>>if the current user is not one.

>That does not work on some things, like for example, opening regedit. When I 
>go to run, and enter regedit I see <This task will be created with 
>administrative privileges> but when I execute I see a pop up that reads 
>Registry editing has been disable by  your administrator.... which I don't get 
>because I AM an administrator!  But if I log out and log back in as THE 
>Administrator then I can use regedit.

>>>And if I want to start loging in exclusively as the Administrator, is
>>>there a easy way to move all of windows settings from my current user
>>>to the Administrator account so I don't have to redo everything?

>>The easiest way would be to just change your user logon to an admin account.
