Default Windows Explorer - Run As Administrator

I can successfully run most of my programs using 'run as Administrator' the
only one that just does not fire up ( nor allow me to change it's startup in
proerties) is Explorer.exe

given the hassle with permissions I reckon the only way to be able to do
what you want , copy what you want and generally run as if you were the true
admin that you know you are is to run Windows Explorer as admin every
time..but it just does not work...just does nothing..Anyone else getting this?

When I do this, it works fine for me:

- Click start
- Type explorer
- Right-click Windows Explorer
- Click run as administrator

It's exactly what I do too and it doesn't work for me..it just appears to
start and then ....nothing....weird....

I can only assume some thing is corrupt in the Vista install...
