sometimes, when I start older games as admin, snapkey must also run as admin to be detected in-game. Is there a reason why that happens? |

SnapKey needs to run as admin when starting a game as admin because Windows doesn’t let apps with lower permissions interact with games that have higher ones. That’s why SnapKey might not always be detected by a game (when running as administrator). Same goes for games that start as admin by default (due to things like anti-cheat, for example). |
