We have recently changed all of our users from being Local Administrators to Standard Users. This includes IT Administrators. IT Admins have Elevated Credentials (aliases) to use when logging on to servers, workstations, AD, Exchange, etc. as Administrators. How do we use Lansweeper with Elevated Credentials? We log on to our workstations as our standard user accounts and this is what is used to launch Internet Explorer and accessing Websweeper. We need to use Elevated Credentials to run a lot of the commands on remote workstations and do other work. It would be ideal if Lansweeper would just bring up the Elevated Access prompt and let us go. Is there any way of doing this?

Most likely you need some quotes ".
You can test the command from the command prompt first

So, for the following command:
mmc compmgmt.msc "/computer:{computer}"

I would change it to:
runas.exe mmc compmgmt.msc "/computer:{computer}"

Is that correct?

Run the webbrowser as an elevated process.
Or
Change the actions so they start with "runas.exe"
