let's go back to the basics.

when you attempt to launch SH4.exe you receive a Win10 Permissions Window, correct?
then you went to the User Account settings and changed something, correct?
Are you certain that the Win10 user account you are using has Admin rights?
Admin rights are the default for playing SH4.

ok, sounds like an installation issue.
uninstall then re-install but put it in a folder that is NOT connected to Win10 and their Programx86 folders.
i use C:\Ubisoft\SilentHunter4.
then, find SH4.exe, right click, and go to properties.
uncheck the read-only box, then save.
there is more to it but that is enough for now.
you should check out the threads for beginners (and returners):
