As the title says this is the first time i have used MQ or played on emu server that has allowed it. My issue is my game wasn’t saving AAs or macros on my hot bar after completely closing client. After some searching I seen someone said it was because because of permissions so I put eq launcher and MQ as run in administrator and it would save. Now the issue is that MQ won’t auto launch my accounts (unless I load to login) but works when I take admin back off.
 
Please don't run mq as admin.

Whoever told you to do that sucks.

Random hacking software on the internet should not have admin rights to your whole PC.

Re eq not saving hotkeys and such, double check you don't have something file locking your eq directory - one drive, or maybe antivirus

Ok will change and see what I can find in the directory.
 
Going to try and do a fresh install of everything and see if I can get everything synced up. I got to where the hot buttons save but MQ is telling me I need to elevate permissions in order to auto start.

you are launching things as admin

double check you're not launching *anything* as admin. mq, eq, rglauncher (should use redfetch)

Please see this sticky
 
It’s making me launch redfetch as admin or else it fails to launch MQ. I’m at work right now so can’t get the error but I will try it in the morning when I get off.
i dont know what "it" is. but no, don't launch redfetch as admin, don't launch mq as admin, don't launch eq as admin - if you're using something like isboxer - don't launch that as admin

launch anything as admin -> launches anything it launches as admin -> dont do this

if you need to, right click on everything and check that you don't have it set to launch as admin

you want ***nothing*** launching as admin
