Hello.

Since I got Windows 11, I can only open LIBREOFFICE in "Administrator" mode. It's really not practical!

Do you have a solution?

Thank you!

    Hello,

    If you want to disable UAC, it's an all or nothing approach.

    Find the EnableLUA key in the registry, and change the value to 0.

    Thank you fabul.

    But that might cause me other problems while my other apps are working fine?

    I never use UAC; it's the first thing I disable when installing Windows, before the first restart.

    But it's never too late.

    Without it, I wouldn't be able to launch Process Explorer as Task Manager (As administrator) from the taskbar.

      I did the manipulation and restarted the computer, but it doesn't change anything...

      Note: I uninstalled and reinstalled LibreOffice several times, just in case...

        It is almost impossible, unless there was an error somewhere

        The path is as follows:

        Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

        [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System]
        "EnableLUA"=dword:00000000

        Thank you fabul!

        But after a second restart at Windows' request... It works!

        Have a good evening!
