I run as admin on my machine and want to run an executable as non admin user from the command prompt (without logging off).
I'm running on windows 7 64 bit OS.
Is possible?
Thanks.

I've wrestled with this in the past, and it can't be done. Only way is to create a scheduled task that you then execute from your cmd session.

If you Shift + Right click on the icon to launch the Command Prompt, you'll see the option to "Run as a different user"
You can then specify a non admin account. Anything launched from that command prompt will be executed as the user you specified.
