Question : How can i get programs/folders to open with left click, in Vista?

Hi experts

When i left click "anything", folder, app, program, etc. nothing happens.  in order to open a program, I have to right-click it and eithr hit "open" or "run as admin" or 'explore".  i am embarrassed to say that i forgot how to change the settings for that.

The question is:  can anyone help me repair the left-click button so that it opens without having to click "run as admin" ??

Thanks in advance?

Can you give a little more background on your problem? I'm a little bit confused. You stated that you have to right-click and then click on "open" or "run as admin" on the context menu. Which indicates that the left-click is working and the problem may be that your double-click speed settings are not properly set.
