prensa Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 zerksees - Hello! Oh that font. :) Anyway, UAC is "User Account Control" it's a security set up in Windows Vista & Win7. Basically it monitors folders in secure areas & prevents them being modified by programs unless told to allow them access. NMM has given you four options to work around it. You could turn UAC off but it is a good thing to have & best left on. Best solution is to just run NMM as Administrator, right click on it's icon instead of double left clicking. In the options that come up select "Run as Administrator". To allow it to Run as Administrator all the time (so you don't have to remember to right click each time), Right click on the NMM desktop shortcut, select Compatability & tick the "Run as Administrator" box at the bottom under "Privilege Level". Hope this helps! Prensa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
