F5EIHelper.exe triggering UAC with Big-IP Client

I am trying to set up Win 7 pc's with a Big-IP client + Certificate to launch on login, but the UAC pops a permission request every time to allow F5EIHelper.exe. Does anyone know what this exe does...

Mike & Mike,

 

 

Did this solution completely bypass UAC? Currently we get a few prompts during login and we are trying to bypass UAC. Also is this with the Edge Client or with the web client? What was the exact fix?

 

 

Thanks,

 

Seth Cooper

 

You're going to need to run this as an Administrator or run the F5 Service Installer. This should bypass the UAC.
