Well there isn't an option yet. This is what we called "mixed elevation", see #1032 #5000.

This is an insane project I just wanted to say it worked great right clicking to launch as an admin for the first tab :P

Yea, and unfortunately mixed elevation isn't exactly going to be possible. We are working on other QoL improvements (#8455) to make working in mixed-elevation scenarios, but each elevation context is going to need its own window.
