Visual Studio 2019 always run as administrator from the task bar icon


I want Visual Studio 2019 on Windows 10 to always run as administrator from the task bar icon. I need to run several solutions as administrator, so admin should be the default.

Note: I want to run only 1 solution without admin privileges. For this 1 solution, using the recent solutions list from the taskbar icon works fine.

    Right-click the Visual Studio icon in your taskbar, or the shortcut on your desktop > right-click Visual Studio 2019 > Properties (or Shortcut) > Advanced... > Run as administrator > OK > Apply

    Now when you open Visual Studio from the taskbar, you should see ADMIN in upper-right corner!
