Trying to place labview VI in permission restricted folder

Hi guys,

I am trying to place my VI in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp

I am able to successfully place it in that folder, however when I open the VI, it asks me to show it where the subVIs are located. (The VI was previously in 'Documents' and i can open it fine without it asking where the subVIs are)

So after telling it where the subVIs are (they have not moved..) I am unable to save it, so the file remembers where the subVIs are. This means when I restart the laptop, and it opens up on windows launch, it fails to run because its wondering where the files are.

Not sure how to get around it? I was thinking of running the VI as administrator, but that is not an option on windows, it must not see the VI as an application

 

 

EDIT: Ok i figured it out but thought I would post anyway incase someone googles in future, I ran labview as administrator (not the VI itself) then opened the VI via labview, and then I could save it.
