Windows UAC prompt on Startup | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Everytime I boot Windows I get two UAC prompts. one for Synapse, and one for Cortex. it is extremely annoying, and no other software/drivers require this. is there a reason? can we get rid of it?
thumbs up!!

No offence @Maximusisback but the thread you mentioned, did not get confirmed that the issue is fixed.



Although it might show a different result for this Insider



Fingers crossed~~


Hey, no offence taken, just wanted you to give some possible fixes!

It asks for those permissions as both programs require privileges for boosting/managing your PC

it's literally no other software except the razer. think I will just uninstall
Check out Google like "how to bypass UAC prompts during startup"
Try the followings



* Update Windows



If still causing UAC



* remove every RAZER applications

* create a new administrator user

* Go to RAZER web and download the latest RAZER exe file

* Install it onto pc as a administrator



If still causing UAC prompt



From here I am thinking your Windows OS is damaged and may need a fresh installation / full reset
nope. signed in as administrator. literally no other program asks me to do this. it's like it's updating every time
Set your user as an administrator, I am thinking you are a standard user
yeah but how do I stop them from both asking for admin permission every time? or is my only option to disable/uninstall
I am thinking you have a Windows 10, if your pc already has both Synapse and Cortex installed the two applications are set to automatically start once you login.







@registradus

Question to you is, is there other application/s that keep triggering UAC prompts during startup?



If yes, that could mean that your startup shortcuts are triggering UAC prompts in order to run.

If no, then it could be that the exe files or shortcut to the files have been added to your personal startup login folder. Check the follow folder directory of your PC and see if there are exe files or shortcuts that maybe is triggering at start up
