I pinned Visual Studio to the taskbar and in the Properties and I set it to run as an Administrator. That works: when I click on a icon, it opens VS in Administrator mode. However, when I right click on it, and select one of the "Recent" solutions, it opens Visual Studio in non-admin mode.

How can I get it to open the recent solutions as an admin.

I am aware of a similar question, but the solution involves setting the exe for Visual Studio to be run as an admin. This means that Visual Studio will always run as admin. I do not want that. I only want it to run as admin from the pinned shortcut.

Create the shortcut, right click it, properties and under the advanced button check the box 'Run as Administrator' OK, OK.
