I'm running xplorer2 on Windows 7. Until this morning I was able to run the program as administrator (e.g., using the menu item Window | Administrator). However, I suddenly can't do it anymore, because the Administrator menu item is grayed out. Any ideas why this would happen and how to fix it?
Thanks.

Re: Can't run as administrator
perhaps you are already running as admin? Look out for a * in the titlebar, this says you are admin

Re: Can't run as administrator
Weird. I can't answer your question with certainty, because this morning, after a good night's sleep, I launched xplorer2 and the administrator menu item was no longer grayed out. No idea why my computer does things like this to me. However, I don't think I was running as administrator when I posted about the problem, because I wasn't able to do tasks that required that option to be selected. But in any case, thanks very much for your response. I didn't know about the *, and now I do.
