      Hi all, I'm hoping someone can tell me what's going on with my game. I'm unable to launch a game from the FAF client, and it's currently giving me the error below. Let me know if more info is required to pinpoint the issue. Thanks!

      Client Version: 2025.2.1
      java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin\ForgedAlliance.exe" (in directory "C:\ProgramData\FAForever\bin"): CreateProcess error=740, The requested operation requires elevation

        You do not have permission to run it.

          As in I'm missing admin permissions? I've been having trouble with my PC recognizing my account as administrator, even though it's the only account and it says it's the admin account. Could that be the cause?
