Despite the available shortcuts arrow navigation should be possible
The available keyboard shortcuts to start a program as administrator or open the containing folder are great but one has to remember it. If it is not often used the knowledge is gone.
I would suggest to add arrow key navigation as well.
Search for CMD
Arrow key down to highlight the entry for command prompt
Arrow right Run As Admnistrator is selected (Enter will run as administrator)
Arrow right (second time) Open containing folder is selceted (Enter will open it)
Arrow left Run As Administrator is selected
Arrow left the entry itself is selected
and so on
I would like to see this feature as from my point of view it is not that much slower than the available shortcuts but easier to remember.

@HolsteS thanks for the feedback! Instead of "Arrow right", you can currently use "Tab" to navigate to those buttons (and "Shift+Tab" for "Arrow left"). We still need to improve the selection experience since it's not clearly visible which button it is currently selected if you use "Tab". That issue is being tracked in #2559
@jyuwono That is great news as I am able to use Tab as well why not. If both tab and arrow work once a time that would be great as I do believe more users will just try one of those options out and be happy.
