Application for opening of Legacy user account control

Whenever I open my program Legacy User Account Control prompt appears, very annoying, any suggestions?

Here are your options:

  • Visit the homepage of the manufacturer. Some legacy applications have settings that avoid the challenges of UAC.
  • Use a 7-compatible Windows version of the application.
  • Turn off UAC (not recommended)

  • The Windows 7 user account control settings does not open

    Hello

    Someone knows a problem where a computer launches the application "change user account control settings?  We are dev work on multiple PCs and need to disable this feature.  Normally, I would run the UAC and just drag the bar down, but I can't even the application to load.  I even tried running: C:\Windows\System32\userAccountControlSetings.exe and it does nothing.

    Thank you

    Well, I was not able to understand why the window UAC doesn't appear, however, I managed to disable UAC via the local policy settings.  For reference purposes:

    1. Start > run > gpedit.msc
    2. Computer configuration > Windows settings > security settings > local policies > Security Options
    3. Then define:
    4. User account control: behavior of the guest of elevation for administrators in Admin Approval Mode – set its value toElevate without asking for confirmation.
    5. User account control: detect application installations and prompt for elevation - set its value todisabled.
    6. User account control: only elevate the UIAccess applications that are installed in secure locations - set its value todisabled.
    7. User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode - set its value todisabled.

  • Need to change user account control settings, but cannot access (windows 7Prof.-64 bits)

    Hello

    With Windows 7 Professional 64 bit laptop

    I am the 'Standard user' and the only user of my laptop.  I don't know if I have an administrator account.  I could have or something with a similar name when first setting up laptop and loading Windows program (a few years ago).  But I remember he was causing Windows always show both accounts and choose one to log-in to.  I didn't want no choice since I am the only user of the laptop, so I understood how to make to get rid of the other account (admin?) and kept the Standard user because 'Help' instructions, said it should be used.

    There are so many programs that I can not open because the user account control box "do allow you the following program to make changes...?   The choice of 'Yes' is NEVER highlighted or available - that the choice of the 'no' can be clicked.  And the same dialogue box asks also but it is not a place to type the password "Administrator".  I don't even have a Director. Password, or a password to the Standard user account.

    And I am referring to all kinds of programs that can not open, as "Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool" that I downloaded from the Microsoft Web site.  Or I went into control panel 'User account', but try clicking on 'Change settings User Account Control' brings the same view, "do allow you the following program to make changes to the computer?  Or when, on the page of computer system, I can't access 'Advanced System Settings' due to the same dialog box.

    How to solve this problem?  I'd rather not have the choice of Auditors when Windows opens.  I looked through other similar topics here (only Windows 7 partners), and some seek to make changes to the registry.  It's very intimidating for me.  I'm not a computer scientist at all, but fairly intuitive with the computer.  The problem cornered me.  Another opinion on a thread is said to use "Fix It".  This program is no longer available (we now 2016).  I also experienced this problem all this time but am pretty frustrated and wanted to try the job.

    Should I re - load the Windows program and do something else?

    I hope someone can provide some less intimidating process that touch the registry to fix this.  I really appreciate it.

    Thank you!

    I could have or something with a similar name when first setting up laptop and loading Windows program (a few years ago).

    -> Yes, you did.

    I understood how to make to get rid of the other account (admin?) and kept the Standard user because 'Help' instructions, said it should be used.

    -> It was a bad decision. It was equivalent to throw out your safe master key. There is a much better method to avoid the choice between multiple accounts.

    I don't even have a Director. Password, or a password to the Standard user account.

    -> You had an admin password when your first install Windows.

    I'd rather not have the choice of Auditors when Windows opens.

    -> It takes 30 seconds to remove this choice, without loss of the admin account.

    Some seek to make changes to the registry.

    -> Hacking the registry does not restore your account admin. 'Fix It' will not fix it either.

    Should I re - load the Windows program and do something else?

    -> Your first step must be to determine what accounts you have and whether they are active. It is done as follows:

    1. Mark the first line of code below with your mouse, then press Ctrl + C to copy it.
    2. Click the Start button, press Ctrl + V to paste the code in the run box, and then press ENTER.
    3. Marks of the second line of code below with your mouse, then press Ctrl + C to copy it.
    4. Click the Start button, press Ctrl + V to paste the code in the run box, and then press ENTER.
    5. Open the desktop Accounts.txt file, then copy & paste its contents into your answer.

    Hi hlsmlane,

    Welcome to the Windows Vista Forums answers.
     
    Some applications, such as applications to be internal or non-Microsoft products, require the full administrator access token to perform at least some of their functions or tasks, but have not been identified as applications administrator by the developer or Publisher. In this case, you can use the following procedure to mark an application so that the operating system always requires the use of a full administrator access token.
     
    Important: you cannot mark an application to bypass the message user account control.
     
    To perform the following procedure, you must be able to connect with or provide the credentials of a member of the local Administrators group.
     
    To mark an application to always require a full administrator access token
     
    1 right click on an application that is likely to require a full administrator access token, but has not been marked as such.
     
    2 click Properties and then click the Compatibility tab.

    3. under privilege level, select run this program as an administrator check box, and then click OK.
     
    Note: If the run this program as an administrator option is unavailable, it means that the application is blocked from always running with administrator credentials, the application does not require any administrator credentials to run, or you are not connected to the computer as an administrator.

    Do you have connected to your computer as an administrator?

    User Account Control (UAC) notifies you before changes are made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. The default UAC notifies you when programs try to make changes to your computer, but you can change how often UAC notifies you.

    Open user account control settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type uac, and then click change user account control settings.

  • User account control interrupts applications full screen

    Programs to auto-update the user account control has a tendency to arise and minimizing applications full screen such as movies or video games. If I do something that causes UAC to pop up, it's good, but I won't be interrupted by it because some program decides to download an update. Is it possible to make may have to wait in the background for me to finish what I'm doing and deal with him and prevent him from minimize applications full screen?

    Hi Bob,

    This behavior of user account control is by design, and you can change it by adjusting the parameters of the UAC.

    User Account Control (UAC) can help prevent your computer from unauthorized changes. UAC notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. These types of changes can affect the security of your computer or can affect settings for other people who use the computer. We recommend that you leave UAC to help your computer course.

    By default, UAC is set to warn you as soon as apps try to make changes to your PC, but you can change how often UAC notifies you.

  • After that Win7 SP1 firefox Gets a user account control prompt every time I open it.

    After installing the windows 7 service pack 1 update, whenever Firefox is started I am invited guest UAC (User Account Control) to ask my permission because he will try to make changes. My UAC setting is enabled by default and reinstall the latest version of Firefox (3.6.13) does not alleviate the problem.

    Check that you are not Firefox running as administrator.

    Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".

    In the Compatibility tab, make sure that this level of privilege: "Run this program as an administrator" is not selected.

    You should also check the firefox.exe program properties in the Firefox program directory.

  • Excel and user account control

    I have a shortcut to an Excel spreadsheet saved on my desktop.  I use is ever day.  Everytime I open it I have to click Yes on the popup screen that asks do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer.  How can I keep my UAC control level but allow Excel spent?

    UAC should not contest an Excel file, if the system is working properly.  I have my UAC set to top & I use Excel files without any problem.

    You will probably get better help in MS Office Excel forum but do these controls first:

    1 Excel open other files correctly?

    2. If you open Excel, and then use to open the file, it opens correctly?

    3 don't Excel file containing the macros auto_open affecting the system that is running this macro the thing that is called into question?  [this idea may be rejected if check 2 books - and I doubt that it in any case, you have mentioned]

    4 check the properties of this shortcut.  Right-click on it, select Properties, click the Advanced button.  You have the checkbox for run as administrator?  If so just, clear the check box, or just create a new shortcut to the file in Excel.

    I guess that check 4 will solve your problem, but if not, see if the users Office Forum can help you further.

    Hi JosephDoherty,

    UAC (User Account Control) notifies you when changes will be made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions.

    You can try to change UAC settings and see if it helps.

    Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.

    Important: Turn on UAC after you complete the steps.

    For more information, you can consult the following articles:
