Windows' UAC showing when I start the SkyDrift

[AdsonMM]

Does the Windows UAC (User Account Control) show up when you click to play the SkyDrift? It only show up for me and when I click "Yes" the "Steam Client Service" installs the "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redist".

just a little different, I have go something from Steam with 2 choice, "Skydrift" or "Skydrift safemode", when I click any of those initiate "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redist". completly normal.

But even when I click 'No' for UAC, the game launches correctly. This is bad because when I am using a wireless control I have to go close to the PC, because the UAC forces that.

Same issue here. Any feedback from the support? Any solution?

[AdsonMM]

No, until this moment.

There is a simple solution to this. First, make sure you have the latest versions of MSVC 2010 Redist and DirectX installed. Then open file "91100_install.vdf" and insert a pair of slashes ( // , C++ style comment) at the beggining of the lines enclosed by brackets after the line that reads "InstallScript".

If you did this correctly, the UAC prompt will no longer pop up.

Thank you so much, that worked.
