Q:
Can't open Guild Wars 2 program
For Windows 7:
If you have access to the administrator account:
-Right-click on the gw2.exe in your Guild Wars 2 folder, and go to properties.
-Click on the Compatibility Tab
(Looks like the order is a little different if you want to apply to all accounts)
-Press “Change settings for all users”
-Check the box at the bottom of this new window labeled “Run as Administrator”
-Apply changes and exit the properties window.
This option should now be selected for all accounts.
EDIT: Just tested this between a regular user and admin account, and it appears to work. If you want to do this entirely from the user account:
-Right-click on the gw2.exe in your Guild Wars 2 folder, and go to properties.
-Click on the Compatibility Tab
-Check the box at the bottom labeled “Run as Administrator”
-It should ask for the administrator password, enter it.
-Apply changes and exit the properties window.
