Run as an administrator issue?

[xannydave1102]

While modding Fallout 4 I got a notice saying Vortex did not have permission to access certain files and it asked me to give permission with a administrator symbol next to it. I pressed yes but the window kept popping up over and over till eventually I closed Vortex all together and reopen it, which worked and the pop ups stopped happening. Two days later I try to open Vortex and it tells me to stop running this program as an administrator and I am unsure how to do this. How do I make it where Vortex no longer runs as an administrative program? I would try to attach a Snip It of the pop up I got but I pressed ignore so I could actually get into Vortex and now it won't pop up again. Yes if you were wondering I am a total noob at this.

Windows 101

 

Right click on the Vortex Shortcut

 

Select Properties----->Compatibility and UNCHECK "Run as Administrator"

 

 

Next, in Vortex, go to SETTINGS---->MODS and check what your DEPLOYMENT METHOD is set to.

It should be set to HARDLINK
