Why firefox keep ask permission whenever he starts, he has never before?

I use Windows 7 and recently used CCleaner to clean my registry and Firefox is now asking for permission to make changes to my computer whenever he starts. I checked for viruses and malware, tried to run Firefox as administrator, removed all but one of my modules, but nothing help. Any suggestions?

Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.

Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".

In the Compatibility tab, make sure that this level of privilege: "Run this program as an administrator" is not selected.

You should also check the firefox.exe program properties in the Firefox program directory.

If you can't make the changes, then you must start Windows Explorer as an administrator.
