PowerRun is a free software to run programs with the highest privileges available on Windows PC. Here it basically lets you run any file or program as TrustedInstaller/Nt Authority/system and you will be able to do more than you can do with the normal administrator rights. It lets you create and save a list of programs and you can launch them in a click as system. It comes with built-in options to run command prompt and Registry Editor, but you are free to add your own programs with command line argument and their launching behavior.
Sometimes running programs as administrator is not enough. You will not still be able to many things such as change system registry values, delete some registry keys or delete files after upgrading Windows to a newer version. For that, you need special permissions, and the software I have mentioned here lets you do that.
Here this software runs in portable mode and you just have to find a program that you want to launch. You can also open files and folders with the highest privileges and do some stuff. It lets you open a specific Registry key and when you run a program, you can specify a working directory.
