I am using CCleaner-64 bit and every time I use it, I am prompted if I want to allow the program to make changes to the computer. This is a real pain. Anyway to stop this prompt?

The only two ways that I know are http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/11949-elevated-program-shortcut-without-uac-prompt-create.html and simply disable UAC. I have disabled UAC and have never looked back.

OK, I have follwed Brink's excellent tutorial, and everything looked just fine: Got the CC icon on the desktop, have the file in: "C:\Windows\System32\schtasks.exe /run /tn CCleaner," but when double clicking the icon I get a too fast to read frame and no CCleaner.

Also, are you also saying that after setting up the icon I have to also disable the UAC? I thought that all I had to do was follow Brink's tutorial as disabling the UAC would defeat my security purposes???

You can run a desktop dock in an elevated mode and the programs you start from it will not give you the UAC prompt. Here is a couple to look over.
