Loader Installation

Why does the loader keep asking for administrator?

Admin elevation is required for DLL injection. Here's how to make it a one-time approval.

Nimbus injects into the Marvel Rivals process when the game starts. Process injection requires the same level of privilege as the target — Marvel Rivals runs as the user, but the EAC anti-cheat surface forces the injecting process to be elevated. That's why you see the UAC prompt every time.

Make UAC a one-time approval per session: pin nimbus-loader.exe to the Start menu, right-click → *Properties* → *Advanced* → tick Run as administrator. Now Windows remembers the elevation choice for this shortcut and you'll see UAC once per session instead of every launch.

Why we don't ship as a service. A persistent elevated service would be a worse trust posture: it would be running and listening even when you're not playing. A loader that elevates per-launch and exits is a smaller attack surface.
