**IMPORTANT**: Please note that, even though the **Privilege elevation task** is set up to only be used by Right-Click Tools, anyone, with some programming skill, could leverage the task to run any code without a UAC prompt. That's highly unlikely to happen because a niche utility, such as Right-Click Tools, is never going to be on enough computers to be of interest as an attack vector for bad actors. Nevertheless, it's up to you to decide to accept the risk and install the task. If you're on a work computer, I would advise against installing the task.

**Note**: If you have already disabled UAC, the privilege elevation task does not add any addiitional risk, but it is then mostly unnecessary. There is a small difference for the **Privileged file manager here** option in that it will only launch a full Explorer window if the task is installed or the registry setting, that prevents Explorer elevation, is disabled (see details about that later in this document).
