Did you download the correct file from the official site? fivem.net
It should never have to run as administrator, and it should block it if you try to run it as administrator. Make sure you install FiveM in a new (empty) folder outside of your GTA V folder.

Also, fill out the support template.

Are you launching it from the shortcut?
If yes,there are more than 1 way to actually run it as an admin.

Go to fiveM shortcut’s properties, then “Shortcut” tab and click “Advanced” on bottom.
Make sure that “Run as administrator” checkbox is unchecked as well,because if it is checked, the “Compability” tab will show “Run as admin” unchecked however the program will still run as an admin.
