You can open Files with admin permissions from the Pantheon Dock - just secondary click and choose "New Window as Administrator". An alternative way is to run Becoming administrator on demand is the subject of an (old) feature request (#165) but is not simple to implement. |

The first solution should work with any desktop, you can found it by using the secondary click in the Files icon inside the "Applications" menu or in the hidden dock, if files in on it. |
