You seem to have gotten something else wrong here.  If the shortcut has
the "run as admin" flag, it only affects this shortcut.  I have two
shortcuts on the desktop, one called "Cygwin64 Terminal", the other one
"Cygwin64 Admin".  The second shortcut is a simple copy of the first
one, so it starts "C:\cygwin64\bin\mintty.exe -i /Cygwin-Terminal.ico -"
just like the first.  Only the second shortcut has the "Run as admin"
flag set.  If I start mintty from the first shell, id prints:

  uid=3D11001(corinna) gid=3D11125(vinschen) groups=3D11125(vinschen),
  559(Performance Log Users),545(Users),
  10572(Denied RODC Password Replication Group),10513(Domain Users)

If I start mintty from the second shortcut, id prints

  uid=3D11001(corinna) gid=3D11125(vinschen) groups=3D11125(vinschen),
  544(Administrators),559(Performance Log Users),545(Users),        !!!
  10572(Denied RODC Password Replication Group),10513(Domain Users)

And, btw., I created the Admin shortcut just for testing.  Otherwise
I usually only do a right click on the shortcut and use the "Run as
administrator" entry there.  It's much less hassle than creating
an extra shortcut for this task.
