Windows 7 "Run as administrator" and UAC problem
Hi,

I recently installed Windows 7 and since then the UAC feature has always annoyed me.

With Windows XP I used to right click on the file I want to edit, choose 'Emeditor' and that's it. I used also to drag and drop any other file to edit into Emeditor to have it opened instantly.

With Windows 7 nothing of this works. The 'Emeditor' item in the context menu is there but it does not open any file. It simply does nothing (no messages, no beeps, no sounds, nothing). Secondly, I'm no more able to drag and drop the files into Emeditor to open them. In this case the mouse pointer changes into 'not-allowed' and it does not accept any drag&drop.

I tried to set up 'Emeditor' to Run as Administrator by default in the Properties window but this did not solved the issue.

It was so handy dragging the files into Emeditor

Can you help me understand the matter?
