    That’s literally what the launchers do, they try check for updates every time you start the game. It’s going to prompt for admin rights every time a windows user runs it, without fail. How many of them run with no errors without the rights given, I’m not sure.

      I can personally confirm: No, it does not.

          Most of my things aren’t even installed on the same drive as AppData.
