1432723 2017-03-11 21:45:00 Windows 10 is driving me nuts! I have a word processor which came on 3 floppies when I had Windows 95. It is called 'Word Express' and is brilliant. W10 has taken exception to it, and queries it every time I open it. W10 has accepted it as the default for WD2 files even tho it doesn't accept the program. How can I exempt this program from User account control? I could turn it off, but would rather not. mzee (3324)

2. Very Easy and possibly better. http://www.itknowledge24.com/ Download and install UAC Trust Shortcut Create the shortcut relating to the program, and you wont be asked for UAC. Just tried it and it works fine.

Brilliant-- If it can be done, why the hell can't Microsoft incorporate it in the User Account control? Same goes for switching the desktop shortcuts on/off, except that the one I have only works with W7.
