I troubleshoot some PCs using XP remote assistance and users don't have admin rights.
I usually install network files with "Run as" and login as admin, but sometimes I don't get the option to "run as". So instead, I run cmd.exe as admin. But in commnd prompt how can I point to an executable file (on network) I want to run?

You can either use net use and map it as a drive so that you can refer to it by a letter like r:
or you can use [URL="file://\\server1\sharedfolder\program.exe"]\\server1\sharedfolder\program.exe[/URL] to refer to the network location.Decide what to be and go be it.
