  Run as administrator option not showing in Windows 11/10
  1] Turn on User Account Control
  If you try to open software with administrator privileges, the UAC or User Account Control prompt appears, where you need to confirm the permission. However, if you have disabled UAC by mistake or some malware has done it without your consent, you might face this issue. Therefore, verify if the UAC is turned on. If not, enable User Account Control and see if this helps.
  2] Clean up Context Menu items
  Use one of these Context Menu Editor software programs to remove unwanted context menu items, especially those that may have been added recently.
  3] Perform SFC & DISM scans
  4] Change Group Membership
  Sign in with your administrator account or ask your administrator to do this. If you have a Standard User account, add your account to the Administrators Group.
  To do this, search for netplwiz in the taskbar search box and open the result. After that, select your user account and click the Properties button.
  Next, go to Group Membership tab > select Administrator > click Apply and OK buttons to save the change.
  Then, re-sign into your computer and check if the Run as administrator option is working or not.
  5] Scan system with antimalware
  Sometimes, this problem occurs due to malware. If none of the solutions work, you should install antimalware software and scan your whole system. Many free antivirus software programs, such as Bitdefender, Kaspersky, etc., are available.
  6] Troubleshoot in Clean Boot State
  You can troubleshoot in a Clean Boot State to see which third-party Service may be causing the issue. A Clean Boot starts a system with minimal drivers and startup programs. When you start the computer in clean boot, it starts by using a pre-selected minimal set of drivers and startup programs, and because the computer starts with a minimal set of drivers, some programs may not work as you expected.
  7] Create a new Administrator User account
  If your standard user account fails to utilize the ‘Run as administrator’ functionality, try creating a new administrator user account and checking if you can use it. You need to sign in with your main admin account and then create and use another admin account.
  If nothing helps, you may need to use the Reset This PC option, making sure you select the option to save your existing files and data.
