  1. My programs crash when trying to save as unless I run as administrator


    Hello,The issue seems to affect every application, from Word, Paint to more specialized softwares. I have been dealing with this issue for a long time and found kind of a solution in running the apps as administrator, but I wish I didn't have to deal with it in the first place. I tried saving as on another account and there was no issue, so this is clearly a server-specific issue. I only hope there is a way to fix it, rather than transfering all of my files to another account.Thank you for your time.

    :)

  3. Quicken 2016 won't start unless accessing as: "run as Administrator" on Windows 10

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    I understand your concern about accessing Quicken 2016 on Windows 10, do let us know the following to assist you better:

    • Is this issue confined only with Quicken 2016 application?
    • How have you installed this application?
    • Have you installed any third-party anti-virus software of your system?
    • Do let us know if your administrator account is a Microsoft account?

    As a basic troubleshooting, I suggest you to disable the anti-virus software if any installed and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to check with the User Account Settings.

    • Press Windows key, type user account control, select
      Change User Account Control settings.
    • Set notification to Never notify, click Ok
      and follow onscreen instructions.

    Step 2: This issue might have also occurred due to compatibility issues on Windows 10.

    I suggest you to uninstall the program, download from the manufacturer's website and try to install it in compatible mode on Windows 10.

    Steps to uninstall.

    • Press Windows + x key to open a task list from the bottom left corner of the screen.
    • Select Programs and Features.
    • Right click on Quicken 2016 application.
    • Select Uninstall,

    Follow the steps to install in Compatibility mode:

    • Download the updated application from the manufacturer’s website.
    • Right click the application installation file and select
      Properties
      then tap or click the Compatibility tab.
    • Place a check in the Run this program in compatibility mode for: box.
    • Tap the drop down box and select a previous operating system, then tap or click
      OK.
    • Try installing the application and check.

    My programs crash when trying to save as unless I run as administrator

    Save BIOS crash.

    When I try to save BIOS, yes, it happened everytime (I will try it more just in case).

    More rarely, it happens by just opening it, it happens in, maybe 1/10 tries, when it doesn't, GPUZ seems to work fine (sensors, detection and such).
