Well, the Ranorex v9.1 release notes mentions that, "The Run application action now provides a flag to run the specified application without elevation (i.e. without admin privileges)". I run my Ranorex Studio as admin too, which seems to do the job here at least. I need to do so to enable debugging.

Are you running your tests from the command-line or from Ranorex Studio? What version of Ranorex are you using?
