Turning UAC Back On
I have Vista Home Premium. I turned off User Account Control on a standard account by removing the check mark in the box "User Account Control." I now wish to turn it back on. However, when you put the check mark back in the UAC box and exit the screen and then go back the check mark is no longer in the User Account Control box. How do I reactivate the UAC for this standard user? -- Steve_ODonnell |

Turning UAC Back On
Hello Steve, UAC is a system wide setting that affects all user accounts. It can only be turned on or off while logged in as an administrator instead. http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/48...ntrol-uac.html Hope this helps, Shawn Steve_ODonnell;1245295 Wrote: I have Vista Home Premium.
