You could promote that user to an admin if that's not an issue. The alternative is doing some tricky task scheduler stuff which may or may not work in this situation.

@ShadyHost I can't give that user admin permission, that's the main point.

ooh ok see if you can log into your account and create a shortcut for said program

right click the shortcut and go to properties, compatibility, select 'run this program as administrator'

close out of that and run the program

it should ask for the password

 

then transfer that shortcut to the other account and see if they can open it. I'm getting this answer from the Windows Forum, but here's another guide:
