When I try to open Adobe InDesign, User Account Control gives me the nag, "Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer." I don't get this when opening any of my other Adobe (or other) programs. The Adobe programs are CS3 or newer.

I would prefer to keep User Account Control on. I've gone into security permissions for the program and checked Full Control. Can I do anything else?

Using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I'm the only user on this computer and am running it as Administrator.

Thanks.

.
Have yo given full permission to the whole folder?
Dude, just turn UAC off, you most likely don't need it!

Just because of one program? :sarc:

Right Click on the program shortcut and go to properties. Then select "Run this program as administrator" from the compatibility tab.
