Problem

When trying to elevate a program to run as administrator, the Yes button is not displayed, and I cannot enter the administrator password to continue.

User account control - Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?

The only message that is appeared:

To continue, enter an admin user name and password.
There is only a No button.

Why isn't a Yes button displayed?

Additional information

The machine has two user accounts:

  1. The main user account (I would like this to have limited permissions)
  2. The built-in administrator account, having elevated permissions

Windows user permission groups

I would like to use the limited main user account with limited permissions, and type out the Administrator account's password when a program requires elevated permissions.
