== UAC (User Account Control) ==Does Vista prompt you to confirm actions too much to where it annoys you? Vista pretends to run as non-root, trying to imitate something UNIX has done since day one. # Click Start Menu# Click File and Run# Type in 'msconfig' and ENTER# In the System Configuration Dialog click the 'Tools' tab# Scroll down and locate 'Disable UAC'This simply modifies a registry key. You can manually edit the registry to accomplish this also. You will have to reboot the Operating System.When UAC is turned on (which it is by default), you must explicitly give permission to any program that wants to use "administrator" powers. Any program that tries to use admin powers without your permission will be denied access.Registry hack to disable or enable UAC from the command line.Disable UAC C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /k %windir%\System32\reg.exe ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v EnableLUA /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /fEnable UAC C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /k %windir%\System32\reg.exe ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v EnableLUA /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /fIf you are a computer administrator, and you still want to keep UAC for standard users, there's an easy way to turn it off for administrators only. Just open Local Security Policy from Administrative Tools in the Control Panel. Then go to Local Policies > Security Options. Scroll all the way down and find where it says something like: USER ACCOUNT CONTROL: Behavior of elevation prompt for administrtors in Admin. Approval Mode;Just double-click it and then click the drop down list and change it to "elevate without prompting."UAC should no longer annoy administrators.[[Category:Windows]]
