Vista's "Access Denied" Startup Prompt Fix

Vista's Security feature is very effective... Yet at the same time very annoying. And this sometimes will prevent the command line tools from what you or the computer automatically tells it to do. Usually because it hasn't recognized you as an Administrator. But there is a fix!

First go to Start >Programs>Accessories. Right-click, and drag the command prompt icon to your desktop. Then click on "Create shortcut option. Ok! Next right click on that new shortcut, And go to properties. Now click on the “Advanced” button at the bottom, And check "Run as Administrator". Then check the OK button twice and you're done!

Hope this helped you new Vista users.
