When I am helping someone remotely with remote assistance everything is fine however sometimes i need to run as administrator and enter my credentials. This works fine locally but not over remote assistence, the session pauses and my screen turns dark. After a minute the sesion continues but can't run as administrator. This happens company wide. Any ideas?

Hi, The issue can be caused by UAC Secure Desktop feature on the remote computer.

It also applies to Windows 7. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/937803 If you have any question regarding group policy, please contact Server Group Policy forum. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverGP/threads Best Regards, Niki Please remember to click "Mark as Answer" on the post that helps you, and to click "Unmark as Answer" if a marked post does not actually answer your question.
