Winrar 3.62 Triggers UAC

[Swimming_Bird]

I just installed WinRAR 3.62 Corp and whenever i open an archive with winrar it triggers UAC protection. This is quite irritating, anyone know if there's a fix or if I just have to wait for WinRAR to support vista?

There is no workaround on an app-by-app basis for preventing UAC prompts if a program tries to access a protected part of the OS or an administrative API.

Have you tested the 3.70 beta though?

The notes mention Vista, though not UAC explicitly:

Personally, I prefer 7-zip - it has 32-bit and 64-bit versions, is free, and works 100% on Vista:

Does it do it when you run it as the admin?

Use 3.61 or 3.70 beta 1, neither of them have uac issues.

Use version 3.61 you will not have any problems.
