Windows 7 elevated privilege window not appearing

0

I have identified a very big problem that I have seen referenced by other posts in some programs, but usually work-arounded.

It is as simple as you trying to execute an application you have configured to be executed with elevated privileges, eg. Counter Strike GO (with Steam), and the application doesn't get run with them (I think neither booted) which makes unbootable the game.

Other times, it shows itself as when you try to execute a downloaded program, that doesn't get it's UAC auth window properly.

So, anyone knows about any way to solve (that not workaround) this? It was working alright before...

EDIT 1: Disabling completelly UAC to no-security (level 0) solves the problem, but I am trying to solve it, not to make a workaround

EDIT 2: ESET Smart Security (firewall and more) installed

When the UAC window doesn't appear as expected, does the Consent.exe process show up in the Task Manager at all? – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2013-09-19T23:24:25.253

@techie007 no it doesn't. I will answer you all when I get back from work. – txomon – 2013-09-20T06:39:27.737

@surfasb If you mean to run a downloaded program that doesn't require UAC, it works. Anyway, this only happens sometimes. In my case, with TeamViewer – txomon – 2013-09-20T18:40:06.730
