Black screen before UAC message
UAC is still on, it just silently elevates. Again, it's not turning it off, it's auto elevating it.

UAC
UAC is just too much. For regular home user's without tht benefit of a good IT person on hand, maybe it is needed... or for server's which are more likely to be the targets of attack. I think one way it couldve been done a LOT better, would've been if instead of locking up your whole machine with a prompt,

Lost control over UAC
ORG sol lists freebsd alpha Ok, I have a couple of questions about the uac (unaligned access check) flags in the kernel. First, I think they should be a process-wide property, so we need to move them out of td_md.md_flags and into a p_md.md_flags or p_md.md_uac or some such. Secondly, why do the sysarch() syscalls

UAC
Enabling UAC creates many other issues. Flash Player will not run or install, Library registration errors on all pages (including the simple google.com), a startup program is blocked and even though I select "permit" in Win Defender, it does not permit it to run, I can't even see anything on windowsvista.com with

UAC Disrupts applications
As I understand it from reading the MS White Papers on UAC, in effect each UAC prompt is silently answered with a "Yes" with this setting. This removes one of the key advantages of UAC: the computer no longer warns you when something with security implications is about to happen. This brings up a question: can we

UAC?
As a result I have completely turned off UAC. It is my desire to be as secure as possible, and I am even willing to be somewhat incovenienced to do so (such as the prompts asking me if it is ok to run). But I was running into problems even getting things to run properly, or *at all* until I turned off UAC.

Seeking Pointers on UAC
UAC was my very first Astrology Conference. 1989 was the year I was faced with my obsession with the subject and the reality of what was available here in the state of RI and should I continue or drop out completely. In this state there was one small group which held a few meetings a month to 'look' at charts.

I figured the UAC/20 had been done. I was really thinking of the UAC/10 in comparison to the old AC-20: The UAC/10 has (on a good day) the same damage The UAC/10 has the same heat The UAC/10 has the same or better shots/ton The UAC/10 is about the same size as the AC/20 - no Swayback, here! The UAC/10 is more

Visual effect on Vista and activated UAC
UAC. I run Vista business on an admin account. At present I'm standalone (it's also on a laptop). UAC pop ups annoy but I seem to remember reading that turning them off came with a risk. Something about apps not working or windows getting confused... or something? I mainly use visual studio, sql and watch movies on

UAC in VISTA and VB (NOT .NET)

At present I am using XP in a dual boot machine and am hoping that Vista compatible versions of the programs will eventually become available (I'm not holding my breath!

UAC - on or off
It seems you need to have UAC enabled before you run any type of update for software - that I did not know. I'm trying to get Norton running with UAC on so I can do the right thing the next time.... I don't want UAC on and NO virus protection running while I update something. Thanks for your input!
