Just like before: for a short-cut you select properties & advanced. For the program executable you select properties and compatibility. In both places you can set "run as administrator" which looks like it gets around the problems. I must do some tests and see about writing to the root etc. But so far you seem to have identified the fix. It may seem simple, it's usually the case that when you see how to do something, it immediately becomes obvious and simple to anybody. Until then - it's a mystery only open to the cognoscenti!
I didn't realise that when I run things, being administrator, the actually running is still under full restriction.
Hoepfully this thread will be of some value to other people who to transit to Windows 7. I hope this is an end to it - until something else wraps around our faces. One thing I have found is that accessing my server by FTP using wininet.dll works fine; I thought this was most likely to be a source of trouble. Ah well.
