Hi Guys,

If you get the Windows UAC prompt when you start MWO and don't want it, then don't install MWO in the Windows Program Files directory, the default location.

Install MWO in a non protected directory, such as Documents or some other non system directory.

Cheers

alternatively you can just turn UAC off.

while I do not recomend this as it makes your PC more vulnerable to viruses and malware here is how

go to control pannel,
search for uac
click on user account control settings
set the slider to never notify
click OK
