WARNING.

I have detected that when I run the application at a given time Windows notifies me that the UAC (User Access Control) has been disabled and that I have to restart the computer for the changes to take effect. This is abnormal and is an obvious security risk. My opinion is that there must be something wrong with the compiled binaries. I'm using the executable available in github, I'm not compiling my used version. The problem occurs when I launch the program.

At this moment I have deactivated the application waiting to study the case more in detail. I don't want to risk if there is something strange in the software.
