How to run a Steam game as administrator on Windows 11

LettingTail·2 years ago

To run a Steam game as admin on Windows 11, you gotta go the extra mile but not too far! First, close Steam. Then find the game's exe file in wherever Steam installed it (usually under 'Steam/steamapps/common/'). Right-click the .exe, go to Properties > Compatibility tab, and check 'Run this program as an administrator.' Apply, OK, and launch the game directly from this .exe or start Steam and play as usual. Steam might not need admin rights, but your game will get them every time.
