    For me it worked just by setting UAC to:

    restart PC, launch edge and then back to:

    and restart again. After doing that, i no longer get that admin mode detected warning and edge process integrity level is set to Medium.

    you shouldn't disable UAC for security reasons.

    Don't disable UAC to prevent elevation of privileges :tooth:

    I always disable it because when you disable as many services as I do, Administrator privileges do not function/apply as intended anyway. I can't believe there isn't someone out there who can make Windows 10 run with elevated Trusted Installer privileges from boot-time and going forward. I am not talking about NSudo, but fully unblocked Windows 10.

    People do this, and people have problems - as that poster apparently did - and then wonder "Why is this broken, why doesn't this work the way I want it to work?" and the answer is simple: it's designed to work in a specific way, with UAC enabled, with most services that keep being disabled by people actually left alone and enabled, and then the OS gets a chance to work as designed.

    I mean really... I've been tweaking Windows OSes since pre-v1.0 back in the early 1980s, and there just comes a time where you have to say "Enough's enough, I don't care anymore, I just want things to work as designed..." and you stop doing all that BS and literally damaging the OS by attempting to carve it up and cut out the stuff you presumably don't want to work right which leads to the problems that so many people have.

    I sure hope some of you finally reach that point. I know I did back in the early 2000s and I haven't had a problem since. I know it's pure insanity here at MDL and at other tweaking-laden forums to *gasp* dare to say such things but really: running beta software currently in accelerated development used on an OS that's been modified to work in ways it was never designed to work, and then when those actions break things and problems happen, complaining about it and hoping there's a fix (the fix is leave it alone, actually, something I've been preaching for 20 years now)... that's a bit ridiculous, really. :bash:

    Agree with this. Edge feels rock solid to me, even though it is ostensibly still "beta". For me, all they need to do is add spell checker and turn on full sync, and it's basically the perfect browser. I already use it as my main browser, and was happy to ditch Chrome. 0 crashes, 0 issues of any kind.

    in that case ask in other thread/place to avoid off-topic talk.
