Iโm not able to download games to my A: Drive without running steam as Admin. Iโve figured out a workaround as Iโve set Steam to always launch as Admin but that has now stopped Steam for launching when my PC starts which isnโt ideal. Also, the software Wallpaper Engine which is launched through Steam also wonโt launch when my PC starts despite me having the correct settings so Iโm thinking it also has something to do with these Admin privileges. Is there any permanent solution for this? Iโd like to turn off Admin all together if I can but I donโt know if thatโs feasible.

Hi,
Do you have UAC enabled when running Steam as an administrator?
If so try disabling UAC for administrators only and see if that solves the issue, Disable User Account Control(UAC) For Administrators Only. -
Iโve disabled that and itโs stopped a pop up coming up asking if Iโm okay with this app making changes but thatโs about it really.Comment

It should still allow you to run Steam as an administrator without it prompting you anymore constantly.
Try running Steam normally without admin privileges and see it works now.Comment

Kezsora,
Can I ask that before starting any new threads you update or conclude any other thread/s first, it is not fair for folk to have to wait for a reply to their OP or single ongoing thread while others have two on the go with one of them left hanging, thank you for your understanding.Comment
