  2. Now click on 'All Programs'
  3. Find the program you want to 'Run as Administrator' and then right-click the program and select 'Run as Administrator' from the menu box.
  4. A User Account Control box will pop-up, just click the Continue button, which will allow Vista to open the program running as Administrator.
  5. That's it.
