But this is very buggy when u want to work fast. I want to get rid of the prompt. Thanks -- www.xpindia.com | Guest

| Hello, This prompt is very useful to you, as it prevents applications from running with admin power without your consent. Also, applications that do NOT need admin power do not HAVE admin power with this feature turned on. For example, notepad has no need to be able to format your hard drive, so it is not given such power. Turning off this feature will force all programs to run with admin permissions, without your consent or knowledge, and even if the program does not need admin power. Also, turning off this feature prevents other security features from working, such as protected mode in internet explorer. However, if you don't want to know when programs request admin permission, you want all the programs to run on your computer with admin permissions even if they don't need it (which if compromised could take over your computer), and don't want advanced security features such as protected mode in internet explorer, here's how to turn it off: - Click start - Click control panel - Click user accounts and family safety - Click user accounts - Click turn user account control on or off - Click the checkbox - Click OK - Restart your computer This setting affects all the programs running on your computer, and all the users on your computer. -- - JB Windows Vista Support Faq http://www.jimmah.com/vista/ | Guest

these rights, and set Properties to run in admin mode. Or when you launch an app that doesn't need to be in admin mode all the time, you can right-click it and run as administrator. I wouldn't disable UAC completely, though that's possible. The problem UAC is trying to fix is the dated NT per-user permissions model, which assumes everything done during a user's login session reflects the intent of the user. Given how oftem malware SE's both user and system to run during these sessions, we need something to alert when such moves are being automated by code; hence UAC. Quote:

| Is it really that hard to click "Okay"? It takes about one second. "cquirke (MVP Windows shell/user)" <cquirkenews@nospam.mvps.org> wrote in message news:tefus2ht7e2ge85ohujal0eqreurgf6s4k@4ax.com... Quote:
