This can cause modding utilities to not work properly.

But you can safely ignore the warning. You can prevent problems by turning off UAC completely, or by running SH3 and any utilities as an administrator.

My Steam is installed in Program Files (x86) and all my games are in there as well. I mod them a lot using various modding utilities like JSGME or Nexus Mod Manager etc. and I've never run into any problems because I turned Windows UAC off.

Thanks for the answer, its actually not a warning though. The process stops and takes me back to the program file list. I'll try the UAC though.
