Can't launch Standalone game from Editor, "Requested operation requires elevation"

can you try to run the ueeditor with privileged mode (just once, maybe it fixes some permissions itself). to do so, hold SHIFT + right click the ueeditor icon and choose “run as administrator”. after the UAC dialog (press yes) launch your game standalone and check if that worked. if so, restart UE in normal (not elevated mode) and see if it works.
