UAC permission to one program
Running Win 7 Ultimate.
My motherboard has a software utility that monitors the computer. It starts with Windows but everyday I have to grant it UAC permission to run. Is there I means to let me give this utility permenant permission to load without UAC intercepting it everytime the computer starts? -- Ron |

There maybe some work-round information on the motherboard's website. You could try uninstalling/re-installing the utility but this time install to C:\Users instead of C:\Program Files (if you are given the option during install). The next thing to try is to schedule a task, running under the System account, to run the utility at Windows start-up. If none of the above work then it's either live with it, turn off UAC or don't bother running the utility. |

UAC permission to one program
Thanks guys...I'll look into the suggestions.
Wouldn't you think an organisation like Microsoft would have thought about this kind of problem - a legacy from Vista - and made it so that you could give some programs / processes permission to run with a simple right click or similar - crazy |

A hardware monitor should run as a service process which would get around the UAC issue and the only portion that needs to run as a user is the desktop util that communicates messages back and forth between the service process and the user. That's how a software distribution utility I wrote works. |
