Hello,
I have been running MES on a Win XP laptop for quite a while, and it runs from a standard user account without elevation.
I have just installed Windows 7 on the machine as it is a minimum requirement for other software that I now need to run, but now MES prompts for the admin password via UAC every time I run it. I've also tried installing it on my Win 10 desktop to check the behaviour and I get the UAC prompt on that machine too.
Is that normal? I'm used to it just opening when I click on the MES icon, and the history page on the website states that the requirement to run as administrator on Vista and Windows 7 was fixed as of version 2.1 (ECUScan) in April 2010.
I'm using MES v4.4 registered with the CANtieCAR interface BTW.

Re: MES requires admin privilege to run on Win 7 & 10
Has always been like this on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10.
Nothing to worry about.
