UAC prompts revisited
This comment from another thread made me again revisit the UAC prompt.
Certainly, if you run a new application the first time and tell Windows its OK by right-clicking the installer and choosing Run As Administrator, you shouldn't get any more prompts the next time you run it.
I don't have a lot of programs but several security related programs (CCleaner, MBAM, SpywareBlaster, etc.) and many other non security programs always trigger the UAC prompt.
I have tried to change the privilege level to "run as administrator" but that doesn't work, always get UAC prompt.
I know there is a thread about creating a shortcut that will eliminate the UAC prompt but what about the above statement? I tried it with the CCleaner installer but I still get the UAC prompt.
Or is it just that these programs and the way they are written will always trigger the prompt?
It is a bit annoying and I think about my wife when she may try to use the programs and how the prompt will scare her.
Am I missing something?
