Just started now, and I don't know how to fix it. If I turn UAC off i get that bullshit error saying that I don't have permission to do things so I'd like to keep UAC on if possible...

Anyone know how to fix it?

edit: oh an I'm admin on my pc, and am running it as admin and compatibility for xp.

Why the fuck haven't you disabled UAC since the first 2 minutes of installing Vista?

Seriously.

you wouldn't have to deal with it if you turned UAC off...

No haffey, I get that whenever I try to move files and such when it is off.

.....

are you sure?  UAC is supposed to do that only when it is on.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_Account_Control

my UAC has been off since day one and i haven't been bothered.

UAC off removes the warnings, dude. I turned that shit off before I even organized my task bar, which is one of the very first things I do after a fresh install.

Anyway, try running xfire as administrator.

Hmm... well thats what happens when I turn it off, oh well I can live with the errors. An admin can close this now...
Thanks all.

First off, they're not errors.

Secondly, your vista must be ass backwards of something.

try these methods: http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm

if it's off, it should be off - no warnings or anything.
