IvanJamal Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Hey I just installed vortex and upon trying to launch the application, I get a notification saying: admin rights detected and a warning about continuing. Thing is, I'm not running as administrator as far as I'm aware. I'm just double-clicking as I would with most applications. I also checked the properties to see if run as admin was set by default but that wasn't the case. Just wondering if this is a bug and if it's safe to continue since the notification insist that I could be in some deep s***. Thanks.
HadToRegister Posted November 27, 2018 Posted November 27, 2018 Did you right click on the shortcut or exe and see if it's set to "run as Administrator"?
IvanJamal Posted November 27, 2018 Author Posted November 27, 2018 I did, that's what I meant with properties. Also to correct myself, I didn't actually install yet but instead I'm trying to launch the installer itself.
Tannin42 Posted November 28, 2018 Posted November 28, 2018 Do you have UAC disabled? Because that's effectively the same as running everything as administrator.
IvanJamal Posted November 28, 2018 Author Posted November 28, 2018 Thank you, that was the issue. I hadn't even heard of that before but everything seems to work now.
