FIX or WORKAROUND

  1. Ensure that the "UAC: run all administrators in admin approval mode" setting is disabled.
  2. Go to the following file and modify the temperature as desired: C:\Program Files\Common Files\SCIEX\ClearCore\Drivers\WatersShim\Standby\StandbyMethod.xml  

 Prior to changing the file, you must reboot the PC to implement the change of the UAC setting.

This workaround should not be used in regulated environments.
