Unacceptable - Can't launch game without my USER PROFILE set as local admin

Playing on Steam.

CPU: i7-2600
GPU: nvidia 980 Ti
RAM: 12 GB

When I try to run this game, not only do I have to run the app as admin, I also have to set my Windows user profile as local admin. Just doing either one won’t work. And to even find that out, I had to look in Windows Event viewer just to see what was going on (generic “app can’t access something it wants to access” error) because the game is so crashy that it couldn’t even populate the Windows taskbar before just… crashing without any error messages whatsoever.

It’s not my PC. When I got finally got it running, it ran great, but I am not putting my daily driver user profile in Admin mode every time I want to play this game. I’ve played hundreds of games on this setup without anything close to this issue. This is unacceptable.
