Razor Cortex asks for admin permissions every time | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Hello. Every time my son tries to start Razor Cortex, it is requiring that I enter my admin password. How do I fix this so it doesn't require that password every time? I tried changing the app permissions and also setting it to run as admin on his Windows profile. Still, the problem persists.

Razer Cortex requires admin permission, that is why Razer Cortex asks you to put the admin password every time. To avoid the notification, please kindly change your son's account to an admin account, and see whether this issue persists.



We are sorry for the inconvenience this issue has caused you. Thank you very much for your patience.



We'll be looking forward to your reply!

Unfortunately, that is not an acceptable solution, because I do not want my son having unfettered access to the computer. Are you saying there is no way to enable admin access to this particular application without blanket admin privileges?

Hello there!



We are sorry for the inconvenience this issue caused you.



We assume you installed Razer Cortex on your PC under the guest account. If so, could you please reinstall it under the admin account, and see whether this issue persists?



Please always feel free to let us know if you need further assistance.
