Being a linux user I paid much attention in managing with restricted priveleges users on windows.
Very recently I've discovered another software (like Drop-My-Rights and similiar) to do it: sodowin (a porting for windows of linux command "sudo").
Unfortunatly I'm not able to try it because it crashes on my system ::)

"Unlike the runas command, Sudo for Windows preserves the user’s profile and ownership of created objects. "

If anyone is interested and would like to add some feedbacks this is the link to homepage project:

(i'm not sure if this is the right section ... so I ask excuse since now to the moderators)

my favourite is RunAsAdmin Explorer Shim:
