Attempt to read floppy results in UAC message (Windows 10)

[bitsgalore]

This happens for every attempt at reading a floppy with IsoBuster:

This is really annoying. Possible solutions:

• Change Windows UAC settings (but this is risky)
• Run the software with elevated privilege (also pretty risky)

Better solution would be to allow elevated privilege for e.g. only selected drives (floppy, USB, etc), but not sure if this is possible. Needs further investigation.

In command prompt, run:

secpol.msc

Then go to Local Policies / Security Options; at the bottom there are various settings that are related to UAC. But not entirely clear which one to pick for this case.

Alternative option: always run Ipmlab as local admin. In this case the UAC dialog is not shown. But that's not an ideal solution in an operational setting.

Worth mentioning that Aaru doesn't need elevated privileges.
