Description

When selecting Kerbal Space Program from the Start Menu in Windows 7 Home Premium, KSPLauncher is displayed. Pressing the Play button causes a User Account Control prompt to appear, requesting elevated privileges. Only by accepting this prompt can KSP be launched.

Double-clicking KSP.EXE in the install folder does not cause a prompt, and the game appears to function normally without any elevated privileges.

Closing this report out for now. If you find it is still occuring in the latest version of KSP please open a new report (and this one can be linked to it.) For best results, the wiki contains really useful info for when creating a report http://bugs.kerbalspaceprogram.com/projects/ksp/wiki.
