Lost control over UAC by richard
I can neither enable nor disable UAC. Vista Home Premium SP1 - single user – Administrator account. In the Control panel applet, the UAC check box is unchecked and I can’t alter that by checking it (I can check it, but it doesn’t stay checked). Security Center says that UAC is enabled and I get the normal permission prompts. But, IE7 runs in “Protected Mode: Off” even though...

UAC doesn't give me a continue button - can't do anything as admin by Chipwich00
I'm trying to get updates to a gaming program on my computer. The Vista UAC pops up and tells me that a program needs my permission to continue, but the dialogue box doesn't give me a continue button with which to continue. This also happens when I try to manage another account or turn the UAC on or off as well as some other administrative functions. This User Account is the only one on...

only 1 Account works properly by Telcado
There are 4 accounts on my computer. Mine, 2 family members, and the guest account. When I log in everything runs like it should. But when others log in, it shows the welcome screen, fades out, then shows a black screen with a cursor. I have removed their accounts and made new ones, but they don't work either. Any Suggestions?

Change computer name == messed up task scheduler! by Mike B
I recently changed my computer name, and have since found that all the scheduled tasks I set up have been messed up. Each task has the account to use, and within this is the old computer name. I'm surprised Vista didn't update things like this when the name was changed, but anyhow. To make matters worse, the scheduler complains about "the specified account is not valid" for a whole bunch...

Uneeded services by Sam
Is there a good source of documentation somewhere on what window services I can safely disable. I believe that there are approximately 80 windows services starting up on my Vista PC. I know I do not need all of these. It would be nice if there was documentation showing a brief description of each service and why you need this service running and if you can safely disable it. Anyone have...
