Hi Kasggr,

You are be prompted for approval because of her User Account Control (UAC) and it is not wise to turn off UAC.

User Account Control (UAC) is a feature in Windows that can help prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. This UAC asking your permission or an administrator password before performing actions that may affect the operation of your computer, or that change settings that affect other users

By verifying these actions until they start, UAC can help prevent malicious software (malware) and spyware from installing or making changes to your computer without permission.
