So, I can no longer launch CK2 through steam properly. WHen I launch it the application asks for administrator permission to modify data on the computer, it has never done this before, and I have no idea why. If I deny it permission the launcher crashes outright, if I grant it permission it launches but there are no mods installed and no DLC purchased, which is, obviously, wrong. If however I launch the game from ck2launcher.exe in the steamapps folder crusaderkings 2 with administrator permission, it works just fine. I would appreciate help, as I cannot earn steam achievements because launching it through this method skips steam entirely.

Well, I tried that and it didn't work, but then I tried the opposite, and made them all non admin. And THAT worked. Thanks.
