Set my browser to "Run as Adminstrator" now it requires my login on all the profiles. How do I set it back to normal?
I had some malware find its way onto my browser and had the set it to "Run as administrator" to get back to a point where I could clear all the history and get rid of it. Now my wifes profile is requiring my logon password to us Firefox. How do I change that back to default so this does not happen?

This might be a feature of the Firefox desktop/taskbar shortcut. If you call up the Properties dialog for the shortcut, can you turn it off there:
- right-click desktop shortcut > Properties > Compatibility tab
- right-click taskbar icon > right-click Mozilla Firefox > Properties > Compatibility tab
If "Run this program as an administrator" is set there, uncheck that box.
Note: that is how it works on Windows 7, I don't know what has changed in Windows 10.
