How do I runas the Administrator in the current users account

Used runas and ran what? The OS is always good info. Actual
command lines are often infomative too.

Started from Administrator, "HKCU" is likely to be "Default User".
The "other" account will be found under HKU by SID. Edit there, but
get the correct one of course.

Other possibilities exist (see runas /?) but your other user's
account registry hive will still be accessed at HKU since it is not
"current" in the context.
