I know the first response from most users will just be to disable UAC, but it's caught one or two bad programs for me in the past, potentially saving me data loss and the trouble of OS recovery, so I prefer sticking with it. The question is: did MS get their stuff together this time and allow exceptions in UAC? I use Google Pinyin for Chinese language input, and it updates at least once a day, popping up an annoying UAC window that gets prioritized over any task every single time. It's not going to have a significant influence on my quality of life, but it would be nice to fix it.
So anyone know how/if I can make an exception to UAC in Windows 8?

Sorry, one more thread bump and then I'm done. Google Pinyin interrupting whatever I'm doing once or twice a day drives me absolutely bonkers...

However, installing in a non-protected location sounds like a brilliant idea. I'll be giving it a try when I go home from work today. -
If you don't know what it says in the menu, you can use google translate. I'm also not sure why in the world you would need to update a 拼音 to 汉字 program very often, let alone multiple times a day...

I use certain programs everyday and it was getting very annoying always having to allow UAC so I found this program
UAC Pass | freeAvvArea
It is portable just unzip it. When you run it will prompt for UAC but then you just drag the shortcut to the program and it will create a new shortcut. Replace that one with the new one and it won't prompt for UAC anymore when you run it.
