Acamd Monitor won't keep settings

Dear developer,

I'm using MDAPI Plus in combination with ForTheRecord. I noticed that the Acamd Monitor won't keep any user settings. It's because it has no write access to write settings to acamd.ini (C: > Program Files (x86) > For The Record > RecorderTuner Service > MDPlugins > Cardx_y). The same goes for other files (ACAMDTMP folder, chcache.ini, chidcache.ini etc). I think it's because MDAPIHost.exe runs without administrative privileges which you need to edit/create any file inside Program Files (x86). Can you fix it?

I think you just need to grant access to the folder for all users. It can be done in the Windows Explorer

Thanks PlusPlus, but I think it's not a good idea to change permissions on the Program Files. Windows intentionally does it this way as a safety measure.

Would you have any other solution?
