Like most of us, I've turned off the annoying-*** UAC. However, now everytime I start up the computer it shows me a pop up in the taskbar that says something like "UAC is turned off, click her to turn it back on". I don't want it on! How can I make...
recently purchased a new Laptop. The preloaded OS is Windows Vista Business edition. UAC is enabled. I have only one user created and as far as I have read on UAC it is operating as the "psudo admin" = Regular user that can elevate processes to...
So UAC asks for permission to open firefox all of a sudden. I think after an update on the browser it started to do it. It is really annoying and I can't seem to figure out how to fix it... Any suggestions?
Thanks much! 
Does anyone know whether UAC can be used on the Shut Down button?
The company I work for has just purchased a Vista Home Premium machine for use in a kiosk and although most of the stuff we want restricted can be controlled through either 'parental' controls or UAC, users are still able to shut the machine down at a moments notice.
Is there anyway to force the shut-down button to ask for the admin password?
Hi everyone!
1. Everytime i start my computer the program 'AnyDVD' won't start because it must be run in admin mode for it to work properly. (For me anyway)
I get this icon which I am sure you have all seen before:Hi everyone!
I recommand you disable User Account Control (UAC): most method are available at this site: http://www.petri.co.il/disable_uac_in_windows_vista.htm
driving me mad think i will go back to xp..... have a wireless network between xp pc and vista laptop, can view and use alll xp shared files on vista laptop , cannot view or use vista shared files on xp pc, says not accesible. you might not have permission to use this network resource, contact admin to see if you have access.
Have disabled UAC, and given full permissions where i can...........any ideas please...........cheers
Hello guys,
I have the following problem with my Vista Home Premium: every time when I start the computer, everything loads normally, I login but then there is no desktop. Only the "computer (explorer)" window pops up and that's it. I have to ctrl+alt+delete, start the task manager, new task, explorer.exe and then it loads normally.
Tried the usual: removed AV, updates are 100% done, no unusual stuff in startup... UAC is off, Windows Defender is off, firewall is off: same results.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
I try to run CCleaner as administrator and even check the administator box in the compatibility tabs in Properties...but the damn UAC dialogue still comes up.
I thought while logged in as admin, the user can turn of the UAC on a per program basis using the above solution? It is getting damn frustrating because
CCleaner is not cleaning the registry right, and the dial-a-fix is only for XP etc., it will run in Compatibility mode...but it doesn't solve the problem.
No response on this from the CCleaner forums.
