I may be wrong, but for some reason I have a memory of this not being a problem on early versions of Start8.
To demonstrate this shortcoming/bug:
I often want to open cmd.exe in elevated mode (I actually use TCC/LE, but cmd.exe is more well known)
In Vista and Windows 7, I could pres Start, then start typing cmd, then simply press the Menu key to get the right-click context menu to select 'Run as administrator' of Shift-Menu to get 'Run as a different user'.
With Start8 it is necessary for me to reach for the mouse to do this and then go back to the keyboard to use cmd.exe.
I do this several times a day, everyday, so I really hate the fact that Start8 lacks this ability. Is there any chance of this getting fixed?
Start8 is even better than the Win7 Start menu and I am very happy with it otherwise (the only other omission I am aware of is the inability to open shell links, but I do this very rarely and I can use Win+R for that anyway).
