Windows blocking Legacy Devices

As the title says Windows is blocking legacy devices in the Synapse app . The error message is as below.  Any recommendations?

 

User Account Control

This app has been blocked for your protection

An adminstrator has blocked you from running this app. for more info, contact the admin

 

RzSynapse.exe

Publisher:unknown

File Orgin Hard drive on this computer

Programfile location C:\program files (x86)\Razer\Synapse\RzSynapse.exe

Yes, super annoying.

A workaround I found is to create a new Task in the Windows Task Scheduler that Runs RzSynapse.exe on logon with the highest Priviledges (make sure to check that box, otherwise it won’t work), check google for detailed instructions if you’re unsure.

 

However, please fix the issue, Razer.


Same issue here, going to try work around. I’ve tried everything I see recommended and that would make sense. Only fix I’ve found is to use CCleaner to remove any trace of Synapse and drivers, and then reinstall fresh. As soon as I restart though, I get the same issue.
