Solved Reflect now demands "Run as Administrator." What???

After last patch Tuesday, my shortcuts to MR and to backup .xml definition files stopped working. I went to my Apps list and chose Repair (twice), and the old Start menu shortcuts still triggered nothing. Went directly to the refelect.exe file and double-clicked that, and still nothing. Today I was on the verge of uninstalling and re-installing when it occurred to me that when I right-click my Start menu shortcuts, I'm offered the option to Run as Administrator, and I hadn't tried that. So I tried it. It worked. I reset my three shortcuts (main program and two definition files) to run as Admin, and everything has worked perfectly since.

Anybody else experiencing this?

What gives?

Macrium has always run as Administrator for me, going back to V7 that I can remember, maybe even V6.

Yes Macrium has the Admin Shield on it's Icon, thus is running as Administrator, not sure how or why that would get removed though, may have been an issue with the shortcut I suppose.

Thank you both for your help. I never noticed before that I was running it as Admin. No more worries now.

Macrium needs permission to make changes for it to run. I haven't a clue what happened to your shortcuts.
