UAC in Vista Home Premium (hmm... no secpol.msc)
"securify" wrote in message
... I really appreciate all the discussion here, especially some really efficient postings by Shawn. But can someone please answer my concern here ? I am a Vista x64 home premium user. It is also true that I can disable all my UAC annoyances very easily as described here in the forum several times. But it is also true that as of now, I cannot access secpol.msc and can't monitor my local security policy :cry:. This is a part of some weird microsoft differentiation. Why is that so ? Let's get specific :geek:. For example - I want to actually see how the domain in my policy is acting. Let's say I wanna change the "UAC: Behavior of elevation prompt for standard users" policy. How would I do that without secpol.msc ? Is there a tweak which allows me to access the "local security policy" without actually messing up with the registry ? Really appreciate your reply. You've got Vista 64 Home Premium joined to a domain? |
