Mind App asks permission to start each time it turns on

Mind

Good day,

I am encountering an issue where the Mind application (version 1.5) requests administrative privileges every time the PC starts.

For reference, I am running Windows Home, version 24H2, with all updates current as of June 12th, 2025.

Please advise on how best to proceed to prevent the recurring administrative prompt on each launch.

Hello Alanto

What you described is normal. It is a built-in protection mechanism of Windows 11 to prevent harmful programs or websites from making changes to the computer. You can choose to turn off this notification.
To turn it off: Control Panel - Security and Maintenance - Change User Account Control settings - Drag the slider to “Never notify”.

Is there a way to apply this change to a specific application rather than system-wide? I’ve come across a review noting that the issue was resolved following updates, after which the application launched without prompting for administrator access. I’m interested in whether such behavior can be configured manually on a per-app basis.

Hello Alanto

‌The User Account Control (UAC) settings in Windows cannot be configured for individual applications. The primary function of UAC is to protect the system from unauthorized changes by requiring user confirmation for each operation that requires administrative privileges. UAC settings apply to the entire operating system, not to specific applications.

You could change the user account control setting for admins to this:

With this setting you won’t get annoyed by the application prompt and still can use Windows Hello etc. Or you enable the “real” administrator account. But with that Windows Hello is not available.
