When I start xPlorer2 (ver. 1.8.1.4 [unicode] x64 4/22) Windows 7 gives me an error message:
Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer?
below which it gives the details of xplorer2.
What is the cause of this? What is the fix?

Not really, I do think it cannot be UAC as I use it without any error messages. So cause must be something else.
And UAC is much more than (maybe annoying) dialog. For example UAC taking care of registry/file system virtualization so many old programs that "needs" administration rights, work without administration rights.

soonerlater obviously didn't mean to call it an error message since the message is more of a query and says nothing about anything going wrong, so I believe it is UAC.
Not to mention that his description of the error message resembles this:
As for UAC being useful, I can't argue about it because I've always worked on an account with administrative privileges and never used any sort of Windows included protection. I prefer Microsoft providing only the operating platform and let me overcomplicate with stuff I believe I need.

i think that you try to run xplorer2 always as admin, that's why you get this UAC warning. For more information see
