AnyDesk provides the option to run as administrator (elevated), which enables the user to control applications that are limited to administrators. AnyDesk automatically runs as administrator when installed. A session to such remote client cannot request elevation since it's already granted and displays this option as disabled in the actions menu.

Account Types
Can I Use Anydesk Without Installing

Administrator accounts | Have complete control. Users with this type of account can change settings globally, install programs and pass the user account control (UAC) request without credentials. |
---|---|
Standard User accounts | Have limited control. Users with this type of account can run but not install applications. Users can change system settings, but only settings that won't affect other accounts. Tasks that require elevations can only be confirmed by providing admin credentials. |
