VS Code opened with Listary context menu has administrator rights

When using the context menu in Listary for Visual Studio Code. Visual Studio Code gets executed with Administrator rights. Which is annoying because the settings / plugins from the normal accounts are missing (and the security aspect of it).

When using normal Windows Explorer -> right Click -> Open with Code -> this doesn’t happen. Listary itself doesn’t not run in Administrator Mode. Atleast it’s not marked.

faced the same issue here.

I switched to Flow Launcher because Listary is dead. Flow Launcher don’t have the admin rights problem.

Llister running with nomal priviledges and under a normal user account
will never start any applications with enhanced rights.
You may have application shortcuts with the flag set to run as administraor
or you don’t run with a normal user account, which you should of course…
Also a normal configured system will create an UAC warning before running with enhanced rights.
