How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being
You're not alone, but then 193,000 out of millions is not exactly a
significant number. I'm with you 100% and think MS simply decided the only way to get vendors to fix how they do things was to **** off the user enough to complain to them. Personally, I don't work for MS and think I paid way more than this product was worth to have to now do their work for them at my own expense and frustration. Common sense goes a long way and with it, you need almost no protection. (How did we ever survive before UAC?) But, you will not convince the majority who become alarmist when you turn off the mandated or perceived need for lots of protection. For some reason, they seem to think that clicking a button stating Continue is protecting them from harm. Do they understand the warning? If they've decided to Continue after the first warning, do they need to read the same warning when it pops up for the third or fourth time for the same program start? Better yet, do they even read the message anymore? The only thing accomplished by UAC is the absolution of MS from damaging your computer... ...MS tried to warn you before krzpqtz.exe at 0x8007700b executed and YOU pressed Continue anyway. It's your computer. Do what you want. If you lose files because you formatted C:, restore them. If you lose files because of a virus, restore them. If you're worried about identity theft, zombie computers, or loss of sensitive data... ...why are you on the Web? The protection out there is no better than a condom. Making the condom thicker, glow in the dark and putting it on with glue (UAC) doesn't make it work better. To those who seem to never run into UAC... good for you. As always, there is a distinct difference between the home user and business. UAC and the Standard User are highly encouraged in business use. If you mix home and business on your computer, you deserve the outcome. I fully recommend the use of Windows Firewall and Defender. Install a free Anti-virus that you never have to interact with other than installation and when a virus is found. If you are on broadband, get a router with built-in firewall. If you must send or answer chain e-mails, have the decency to cut and paste the text to a new letter so everyone else's e-mail address is removed. "rowanc88" wrote in message ... Other than the usual annoyances when working with executables, UAC comes up every single time I log into Windows asking me about my network login tool, Clean Access, stopping my computer from loading any further. The fact of the matter is, that so many people aren't beginners, we know what we're doing, and we've already got enough protection, as well as common sense, in place to stop anything from attacking the computer. Google 'annoying UAC', and you'll get 193,000 cases of people ****ed off at it. So I'm not alone. |

How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being
193,000 out of millions is a significant number really, because those 193,000
have posted on the internet about their complaints, and have used the word annoying, and have also used the word UAC. You can't say that everyone who's annoyed at it has posted in a forum about it.

How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being
I think you missed the line in my post where "I'm 100% with you on UAC."
I've barked up this tree to no avail. Even so... 193,000 is approximately 0.2 million. (And if googled, 50% of these are repeats from "copy" sites.) With over 100 million licenses sold, 0.2 million is 0.2%. That means 99.8% are not complaining about UAC. In statistics, 0.2% is insignificant and as a businessman, I wouldn't touch my product based on 0.2% complaints. Some will tell you that those who complain in writing (internet) make up about 5% of the real situation. That means that there are actually about 2% to 4% of all licensed users complaining about UAC. Still insignificant in statistics even though it indicates about 3 million users worldwide. The roar may be loud if you stand amongst the 193,000, but standing a little ways back, it's dead silent.

....
I never argued against you about UAC being annoying, I'm just saying it's very short sighted to assume that the 193,000 people who have posted on the internet with the keywords 'annoying' and 'UAC' are the only ones ****ed off at the UAC. I also think it's wrong to assume that 100 million people use Vista. If one person owns one Vista license at home, one at work, and even a few for their kids, they won't write in a complaint with the keywords 'annoying' and 'UAC' five times, one for each license. Their first port of call would probably be to ring up their computer retailer. "Mark H" wrote: I think you missed the line in my post where "I'm 100% with you on UAC."

How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being off
Quote from Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP whom IMO best explains the drawbacks
of doing as this website suggest as well as any other Tweak program or Registry hack that runs UAC in quiet mode. Quote: This is a fallacy! If UAC cannot notify the user that a program is trying to gain global access to the system, then it is effectively 'disabled'. This so called 'quite mode' setting just changes a UAC registry setting to 'automatically elevate everything without prompting'. This means that when you click to open a file, it is 'assumed' that you already know that the file will have unrestricted access to your computer. The main thing that UAC does is to detect when a program or application tries to access restricted parts of the system or registry that requires administrator privileges. When a program does this, UAC will prompt the user for administrative elevation. Without this prompt, UAC cannot warn the user, which means that it is effectively disabled. Some people will tell you that using "quiet mode" will still let IE run in protected mode, but this just isn't true. Without the UAC prompt, a malicious file that runs from a website can run, without restrictions, and silently. Another issue is that with UAC prompt disabled, some legitimate procedures will just silently fail to work properly, with no notification, if you are logged on with a Standard User account, since the application cannot notify you that administrative privileges are required. Even the developer of the TweakUAC utility includes this statement about his product. "if you are an experienced user and have some understanding of how to manage your Windows settings properly, you can safely use the quiet mode of UAC." In my opinion, if you are an experienced user, the last thing you would want to do is turn off the UAC notification. If you 'are' an experienced user, then you would already know how to temporarily bypass the UAC prompt to perform just about any procedure in Vista, such as running programs from an elevated command prompt, or using an elevated instance of windows explorer. The last problem I have with this so-called 'quiet mode' is that it dissuades developers from programming their applications to run in a least user privilege environment.

How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being off
A second post by Ronnie Vernon MS MVP to Bob
Quote:"Bob" wrote in message . .. Ronnie Even with the prompt enabled it still requires the user to be knowledgeable of the application UAC is prompting about. Once elevation is allowed UAC does not protect the user. Clicking allow becomes nothing more than an annoying additional click which in many cases becomes automatic. It's only annoying until you run into something unexpected. Right after Vista was first released, we went through all of the debates about users getting to the point where clicking on the prompt became an 'automatic' response. One user told us about a utility that he downloaded and installed and he got the expected 'security warning' about the file not having a digital signature. He clicked to run the file anyway and the utility installed. He then got a message to 'click here' to configure your personal settings. He then received this prompt. http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/a...UACPrompt2.jpg Without UAC, he never would have been aware of the second file being installed, since he had already permitted the program to run. Needless to say, he decided that he would leave UAC on. Additionally, the most common way a PC becomes infected is by downloading something from the net and even with the UAC prompts disabled you still receive a security warning when you attempt a download. Only in specific instances, such as an installation file that does not have a digital signature attached. The security warning does nothing to protect against 'drive-by' downloads that run automatically. Most of the smaller software developers will not bother with a digital signature, simply because it is time consuming and expensive for them. Personally, when I decide to run something I don't have a need to be asked to confirm it. If I didn't want to run it I would not have clicked on it in the first place. It's not about you deciding to run a program, it's about 'isolation', it's about 'integrity levels', it's about what background actions the program will take when you do run it. Have you ever wondered why an application, that does nothing more than make images look better, needs full and unrestricted access to every part of your computer? The bottom line is UAC does no more than protect the user from himself, and even that still requires the user to be knowledgeable. This is the whole point of UAC. The only way that a malicious program can be installed is if the user gets complacent and stops paying attention to what they are doing. When Vista is first installed, a user will typically see a ton of UAC prompts as they install all of their software programs and utilities, but these will gradually become more rare. Windows has to overcome almost twenty years of being a 'push button' operating system before it will attain any semblance of a 'secure' operating system. The education of users as well as developers will take some time. UAC and other security 'hardening' procedures are not going to 'go away'. When the majority of developers see the benefits, and start following the Microsoft developer guidelines for coding their programs and applications to run in a 'least user privilege' environment, UAC will become a prompt that is rarely seen. The vast majority of windows software should not even need to initiate a UAC prompt. Take a few minutes to read the following article. It will give you a better understanding, and show you the underlying reasons and goals of UAC.

How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being off
In Vista you can disable the UAC ( User Access Control ) from your Control
Panel in the Account folder. However, this will disable this option for your whole machine, including the normal users that do not have administrator rights. You can disable this prompt window for administrators only by changing the following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE with the RegEdit.exe program ( this change requires that RegEdit to be run as administrator ) : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Policies\System Thevalue of "ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin" must be 0 ( zero ). Value 0 = No prompt at all. Value 1 = Prompt that requires to enter an admistrator password(even if you are an administrator ). Value 2 = ( Default ). Prompt that requires an acceptance only.
