That method still requires a pin every time...

Use runas with /savecred option.

I've tried that already and nothing happened after the credentials where entered. Did this work for anyone else?

Probably command syntax was not correct.
Can you show command line, you used?

Well i just put /user:ComputerName\Username /savecred "C:\path\to\file.exe" in the new shortcut

with the name of my PC, the name of the admin, and the application path. Then I clicked on the shortcut that I made and it opened a command prompt and asked me to enter the admin code, and so I did, and I entered, but then the command just closed and literally nothing happened (visually). Sorry if that's not what you meant (and Im not planning on sending a screenshot cuz that would show my computer name and account name n stuff)

Please show exact syntax, you used.

You can replace middle of your computername and username with * symbols.
So ComputerName\Username would result in C***e\U***e
If you're using microsoft account, then you do not specify computername, you specify your ms account name only - like
email@somewhere.net

BTW - there is no private info in your Computername.
Also no private info in your username unless you're using MS account.
