W10 Acceptance to load PCMatic

[Jo Ann]

My PCMatic cannot run automatically because Windows 10 "always" asks if I approve of the software loading. Can this be turned off for only one software, or must I only allow "all" software without my approval? To my thinking, it should always "stay" loaded. What can I do?

Hi @Jo Ann

 

UAC settings are system wide, so it either has to be turned on or off for all programs.

 

With PC Matic, only the program's user interface requires this prompt from Windows when it is opened.  The real-time security of SuperShield is always running and scheduled scans will run without any need for user approval.  The PC Matic user interface requires UAC because that is where you can make changes to scans and SuperShield that will affect the security of the computer.
