    I recently updated my Cycling 74 Max software and installed a bunch of M4L packages.

    Now, whenever I open Live, I get a Windows UAC asking me if I want to allow "InstallHelper.exe (Verified Source: Ableton AG)" to make changes to my system. Something (probably Ableton itself) is trying to perform an installation of some sort, I'm guessing

    I'm guessing this is because I installed the new version of Max. Right now I can circumvent the problem by clicking "No" in the UAC and Live opens just fine.

    Anyone familiar with this problem? Would it be safe to click yes? Perhaps it's just a Max/Ableton integration thing that won't cause any problems and I shouldn't be worried. But I don't like the idea of accidentally hitting "yes" and having to reinstall everything.

    Updates are turned off and everything (Live, Max) is blocked in the firewall.

    Thanks!
