How do I get rid of 'Do you want to allow the following program..."?

I have recently installed Windows 7 on a new computer and have also installed Dreamweaver MX.
Whenever I open Dreamweaver, it comes up with an annoying message "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?"
My question is this - how can I get Windows 7 to recognise Dreamweaver MX so that this message does NOT come up anymore?
Or do I have to upgrade my Dreamweaver to the latest version (probably quite expensive).

Thank you
As Murray stated, it's been about 8 years.  Adobe only allows you to upgrade from the previous 3 versions.  Right now they are on CS5 (11) which means you can upgrade from Dreamweaver 8 which is 2 versions after yours.  So you would have to buy the full version again.  Buying the upgrade is no longer an option.

    I recently installed Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional and every time I open a PDF file that is stored on my computer, I get a pop-up that asks "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?".  How do I get rid of this?  I don't want to change my security settings, I just want to open pdf's without having to go through this step.
    I'm using Windows 7.

    Thanks for that good idea.  I checked the "properties" by right clicking on the AA8 icon and under "compatability" I noticed it had Windows XP (Service Pack 3).  Since I'm running Windows 7, I changed it to that and now I don't get that annoying pop-up!

    I have two computers with windows 7 Home Premium. Whenever I launch Firefox on one, it launches just fine. On the other, I always gets this message: "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer"? " How can I fix this ?? Thanks......

    None of that worked for me. And I don't think disabling UAC is a good idea at least if it's a work computer rather than my own.

  • How to I get rid of pop up user account control "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer" I have windows 7 professional.

    I keep getting an annoying pop up the says "User Account Control" "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer"
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Two days after I downloaded Firefox and set as my default browser.

    Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.
    You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
    If you can't make the changes then you need to start Windows Explorer as Administrator.

  • Every time I try to log on I get: "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?"

    A few days ago I started getting the following message EVERY time I try to log on:
    "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer: It lists FF and Mozilla Corp.
    I have to click "Yes" EVERY time and then it my Comcast homepage appears.
    I have a PC using Windows 7.
    In addition, when my homepage does appear, the 3 little icons in the upper right do not appear. (Minimize, X)

    A possible cause of this error is that Firefox is set to run as Administrator.
    Check that Firefox isn't set to run as Administrator.
    Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.
    * Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    * "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected
    Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

  • "Do you want to allow the following program..." Message

    After installing iTunes 9.2 on my Windows 7 (64bit) laptop, every time I attempt to open iTunes it gives me a message asking "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?". Clicking yes leads the programme to open, but the message appears every single time upon opening.
    Also, when iTunes is minimized to the task bar, it will not open and maximize, and doesn't appear as one the applications running on the task manager and must be shut down through the processes.
    I have uninstalled all Apple software and reinstalled iTunes multiple times as well as moved all my music off my computer.
    Any ideas on a solution?

    Many thanks. I think we'd better try rebuilding your iTunes preference files in the account that is getting the errors.
    For the basic technique, see the *Remove iTunes Preference files* section of the *User-specific troubleshooting* section of the following document:
    [iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717]
    *Prior to doing the preference file rebuilds:* Best to make a note of any custom preferences you have set up for your iTunes. (Rebuilding pref files returns preferences to their defaults ... so you'll likely have to set some of those custom preferences up again from scratch.) Also make a note of any third-party plugins/add-ons you have installed. You may have to reinstall those after the rebuilds.
    *Things to watch out for during the rebuilds*
    Rebuilding the preference files in the \Local\ location causes the iTunes license agreement to run. So you'll need to agree to that again.
    Rebuilding the preference files in the \Roaming\ location causes the iTunes Setup Assistant to run. When prompted to do so, *do not* add files to your iTunes library. (Otherwise you'll end up with a library full of duplicates.)
    ... are those measures of any help with the launch error and the maximising troubles in your usual user account, sana?

  • "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" I mean....what would you do? Is it safe to click yes....(Don Don Don...*sound effect*)..please help...

    Okay everybody...so I'm on the struggle bus so I'm going from Photoshop cs6 off my old broken laptop to trying to dwn Photoshop Cs2...either way I love PS. Now when I tried downloading it for free from Adobe...succeeded...but when I went to the download folder to install it, it said "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" I mean....what would you do? Is it safe to click yes....(Don Don Don...*sound effect*)..please help...

    If you already have a license for photoshop cs6, why do you want photoshop cs2?
    You can just install photoshop cs6 on your new computer provided both operating systems are the same kind (both mac or both windows)
    If you don't have an install dvd for cs6, you can download photoshop cs6 from here and use your serial:

  • TS3212 User Account control is asking me " Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? then it asks me to type an administrator password - ?

    What Username and password is the User Account Control program asking for to complete the 10.7 download on my PC? It asks do you want to allow he following program to make changes to your computer.

    The updated version of iTunes is a change to your computer, and the computer is trying to protect itself against unauthorised changes that could damage it (in other words, hacking, trojans, viruses etc.).
    On your computer, you are using a User Account; imagine that it's your part of the computer. Each user on the computer is either an administrator (who can make changes) or a non-adminstrator (who cannot make changes) to the computer itself.
    Do other people use the computer as well, such as your parents, who may have restricted your ability to change programmes on the computer?
    Or is the computer at, and owned by, your school, or in an office? If so, their computer department has created an account on the computer for you to use, but not change.
    In either of the above scenarios, your account will be a non-administrator account. If it's your parents' machine, perhaps they have an administrator's account.
    If you are the only user of the computer, or there is only the one account on it, then presumably, the administrator password is one that you have set up.

  • When I open firefox, a pop up window asks "do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? How can I get rid of this pop-up window ?

    Every time I open the browser, a pop-up window asks "Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer?"
    It is unnecessary and annoying to have to click "yes" each time.
    How can I get this pop-up window to stop?

    Thanks for the help I'll keep the info just in case - but I got so frustrated that I just deleted the program and then re downloaded the current version now everything works fine.

    No more UAC for Firefox.

  • Before Firefox opens the User account control comes up and asks: Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer? Must hit yes for Firefox to open. This happens every time and adjusting the level of notification does not help.

    It started happening after a recent update from both windows and firefox
