You know, I remember when macOS made fun of Windows Vista's gen1 UAC asking for permission to do anything.

Geez Microsoft is so terrible about this. It doesn’t help that certain apps are coded like shit as well. Ubisoft Connect literally asks 3 TIMESEVERY TIME YOU OPEN IT for UAC permissions. Once a week would be absolutely a joy in comparison.
