Since about two weeks ago, just after upgrading to a new version, I've been getting the UAC popup when the computer boots. I read in another post here (http://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=5642) to make sure Everything service is unchecked in Options > General, and it is.
It also says to make sure appdata is on, and "Run as administrator" is off, to "Check Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything." and "Uncheck Run as administrator.", which I did. Then when I run Everything, it doesn't work - but if I leave it up for a while I get this popup...
I click the 'Ok', and it works - but I'm sure UAC will pop up next time I turn the computer on.
I've also tried (as mentioned at the bottom of that post) manually stopping the service in windows' services window in Task Manager and then restarting it again, but no luck with that either.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled it and the problem persists.
Maybe I should just consider ok-ing the UAC as part of starting the computer?

Please make sure "run as administrator" is disabled and try reinstalling the Everything service:
- In Everything, from the Tools menu, click Options.
- Click the General tab.
- Uncheck Everything service
- Click Apply
- Check Store settings and data in %APPDATA%\Everything.
- Check Everything service
- Uncheck Run as administrator.
- Click OK.
- Completely exit Everything (right click the Everything system tray icon and click Exit)
- Open your %APPDATA%\Everything\Everything.ini
- Change the following line:
run_as_admin=1
to:
run_as_admin=0 - Save changes and restart Everything.
