10-05-2016, 01:27 AM #1Please login with administrator privileges and try again (Windows 10) Comes up now ,when trying to play games . ive tried many things on the net . Except creating a new Win-account ,i only wish to have 1 account that's it then done . Im starting to think Microsoft wants entire control of us .No gaming and all passwords for them. Sorry im feeling a little stressed out i wanted to play my old NFS game i have a stack of games sitting here i want to install but not till i get this fixed. Yet another thing to do when installing windows after a fresh formatt . If i can not get a fix for this ill revert back to windows 7 . I didn't pay for these games to have in my face Sorry but um no we don't like that game it's old. Thanks in advance. For any advice .Have in mind i have tried a fair few things ,i may say yes tried this and that. But Fire away . Thumbs Up.

You're dealing with outdated software that expects admin rights. Many old programs ignore Microsoft's guidelines for development. This creates security issues because files request elevated access. If you open a file and it demands admin privileges, it's likely malicious. You can prevent this by choosing "No" in the User Account Control prompt, which blocks the program from modifying system files. Avoid installing such games in Program Files; place them elsewhere or on a different drive. Adjust permissions so everyone has full control, allowing the game to function properly without risk.
