Runas context menu shortcut

Runas context menu shortcut

In Windows 7 there is an option to enable a run as context menu by holding down the shift key when opening the start menu. When I select the run as option a credentials dialog is shown, but it doesn't allow me to specify a domain like I can when I am using runas from the command prompt. The domain defaults to the domain that I am logged into.

"Simply prefix the domain name followed by a / then your username in user box. Example:

DOMAIN/username

I think this trick works for all MS Windows credential authorization boxes."
