Tip of the Day: Launching Programs with Administrator Privileges from the Windows 7 Taskbar

For those of you who have pinned any program to your Windows 7 taskbar, you can hold down the Ctrl and Shift keys when clicking the icon and it will launch it with Administrator privileges.

I use this frequently when I need to run Visual Studio 2010 with Administrator privileges, but it will work with any program.

Now I just need someone to write a VS2010 Extension to relaunch VS2010 with Administrative privileges for the same Solution file.  Maybe I have a new project on my hands...
