I have seen extensions cause this in the past. In my case it was a third party VPN (Tunnel Bear) installed. It had an extension in Chrome that would auto connect the VPN.

From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jimmy Tran Sent: Wednesday, April 5, 2017 5:03 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [NTSysADM] UAC prompt when launching Chrome This issue has been happening for a while now. A user will launch Chrome and they will get a UAC prompt immediately. They can hit no to continue but they will eventually get another UAC prompt after opening Chrome. This happens across the board for all standard users. I've tried the Chrome browser for business as wells as the standard version but both eventually give us the same problem. This does happen randomly on different computers running windows 7 or 10. I've found a bunch of people having this issue on forums but the only solution that was found was to set chrome.exe to run as administrator for all users. The problem is the user account is a standard account so it will prompt for elevated credentials again. I have also tried the Google ADM templates to disable auto updates but it still occurs. Has anyone seen this issue and resolved it? -Jimmy Confidentiality Notice: This is a transmission from Montage Health.
