Author: TACKtech Team   Views: 9,501 /  Created: May 5, 2007
Many advanced user are annoyed by Microsoft's new User Account Control (UAC), a new security component of Windows Vista. UAC enables users to perform common tasks as non-administrators, called standard users in Windows Vista, and as administrators without having to switch users, log off, or use Run As.

This Step-By-Step Guide will show how to prevent Administrators from being prompted by the UAC dialog, on Windows Vista Business and Windows Vista Ultimate.

* Non-administrators will still retain the original User Account Control (UAC) configuration.
