Every time I launch Captivate 8 I get a Windows Security Alert asking me to add an exception to my Windows Firewall for Captivate. The details of each exception point to a location inside my appdata\local\temp directory.
C:\users\mstephens\appdata\local\temp\cp3916420360387session\cptrustfolder3916420360387\adobecaptivatews
C:\users\mstephens\appdata\local\temp\cp8020420386985session\cptrustfolder8020420386985\adobecaptivatews
C:\users\mstephens\appdata\local\temp\cp11584515494399session\cptrustfolder11584515494399\adobecaptivatews
I have the main executable added as an exception already but I get the prompt for new temp folders on each launch.
I was having this same issue with Cp8 in Windows 7. I contacted TCS support and they helped me solve it for me. I asked if they would be willing to reply here with a link to download the fix, but they said "We don’t know, when we will be providing the link to the file, however we will be updating about the same on our forum and hopefully can come up with the link to the file shortly."
However they don't have an issue with me posting it, so here it is.

After writing for some time with the Adobe support, we received a nice suggestion:
The service responsible for the Firewall exception window is working with Adobe Edge Inspect. If you switch the UserEdgeInspect entry in your AdobeCaptivate.ini from "1" to "0" the exception window will stop showing up on start.
