Description of the new feature/enhancement

I miss the feature to run wt as different user from

  • start menu.
  • context menu in task bar.
  • context menu of wt.exe in explorer.

For me this is a must have when using it in our company. Because of some reasons the uac is disabled.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

"as a different user" or "elevated (the same user, but with admin permissions)"?

"As different user" because elevated as the same one doesn't work. (UAC is disabled.) Additionally we have different user profiles for normal (word, ...) and administrative work.

I don't like to switch user profile (via start menu) for doing things with admin permission in wt.
