This is fine for the vast majority of applications, but you may need to manually "run as administrator", by launching the Wine file explorer (explorer.exe), navigating to the program, right-clicking, and selecting "Run as Administrator". This will cause Wine to report administrator privileges but, again, will not affect permissions on the Unix side. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
