Create Windows Shortcuts that don’t ask for Administrator Privilege every time

UAC is one of the most annoying part of launching any file or program. Even this has been handled pretty nicely but if you have some programs or executable which always need Administrator Privilege prompt screen, then here is a way to suppress them all the time.
ElevatedShortcut for Windows 8 and Windows 7 is a shortcut + Administrator Privilege Screen suppressor program where you can create multiple shortcuts and make sure they are not prompted any more. Now for those who do not know how UAC works then this program just launches the file with elevated privilege i.e. it does not bypass UAC but starts with it. The only thing that goes off is the prompt screen.
How to use it :
When you first launch the application, you will be prompted by UAC. So choose yes and you will get option to create New Shortcut, Modify Shortcut.
  • New Shortcut :  Asks for selecting a program, additional command line arguments and where to save. I will suggest you to save on desktop so its seamless.
  • Modify Shortcut :  This can convert an already created shortcut into elevated making your job lot easier. No need to recreate all your program shortcuts again.
  • Removing  is self explanatory.
