As it is on a separate user account which is password protected (I am the administrator), whenever it will open up this game, the UAC asking my password, and it really gets on my nerves, because every time I'm dragged more to put in it for him. I tried all the basic things, which is affecting the program affecting always allow through parental control in him giving full access through properties, but nothing seems to work. I can't do the thing with the Task Scheduler, because it doesn't have an administrator account. Please, any help is welcome. (A video tutorial would also be much appreciated)

    Be able to disable the UAC for a specific application would defy its purpose which is to prevent programs do things behind your back. If you can turn it off then that would create a gap as rogue applications exploiting immediately. You have two options:

    • See the FAQ for this game in order to see if it can be changed to be compatible Windows 7.
    • Get a compatible version of Windows 7 the game.

  • How to disable the VirtualStore in Windows 7?

    Tell me why I should leave it or what it does. I know what he does. It prevents my application to work correctly. The application must be able to read/write files in their ACTUAL location, not in their virtual store. Disable UAC on Vista it kills, but in 7, it isn't. How can I disable this feature of AWFUL bug [s] [s]?

    The application is shared on the network and have the machine hosting on windows 7 means that the host cannot run the application because it won't work 'live' data.

    Thank you microsoft, again, you know exactly what the program or the user wants to do better than them. >:(

    The way to disable in vista and 7 (which does not disable the UAC in vista) is to use the TAKE OWNERSHIP permission (google it and get the reg file to add it to your right click menu) to take charge of the case. Then give desired of all users full access to the folder, windows will be stop duplication in and working outside your store.

    No, thank you to everyone who came and told me I didn't know what I was doing / did not feature (BUG) / should not turn it off.

    I write the answer to help those who agree with me that this virtual store is nonsense. And this happening to a computing device rather than a computer is also ridiculous. I want an OS, not a computing device. If I wanted a computing device I would buy a mac.

    Yesterday I just reinstalled Windows 8, replacing the preview of the version and the official version.

    I would like to disable UAC and various other things, but I can't.
    Do you want the following program to make changes to this computer?
    Control parameters of account user (or almost anything from the control panel)
    To continue to type the administrator password, and then click Yes.
    There is no area password to type in. He 'bumps' when I type. I can only click on the No button or display unnecessary details.
    I will not restore the system on a new installation. Apparently, it's an old bug that has never been fixed because you can just tell people to do a system restore and close the book on the complaint. If please post a proper fix and stop wasting users time.
    Hi, I know I'm a little late to the party, but I found this post faced a similar problem and thought that post my findings.
    I found a work around for this problem, which does not require a reinstall of Windows, but you may lose your user account.
    Summary:
    The problem is that in Windows 8, the administrator is inactive by default, you will have to find a way to activate it. You can enable the admin account as an administrator,.
    However. Fortunately, (on my machine anyway) it seems that you can access your hidden from the Safemode administrator account. If your first set of objectives will be as follows:
    -starting in safe mode
    -Log in as an administrator
    -l' administrator, enable the account administrator similarly.
    -Restart your machine and you as an administrator outside of safe mode (normal mode).
    From here, you should be free to do what you want. Now that the admin account is active, you are allowed to type a password when prompted (by default that the password is empty). For me, however, when I tried to promote my previous user administrator account (among other things) I noticed symptoms that seem to indicate that the account ceased to exist. I went through measures to set up a new account and get it synced with my microsoft email account.
    -Create a new user account
    -give administrator rights
    -remove my old (for some reason, hidden) account
    -Sync to the top of my new user account with microsoft e-mail account.
    Directions for use:
    How to get admin access:
    (1.) start in safe mode. You can make it easier by opening a command prompt (Start menu-> type "cmd"). And type "shutdown/r/o".
    2.), your computer begins to restart, but give you a set of troubleshooting options. Choose troubleshooting->-> start of the Advanced Options settings.
    3.) after reboot and enter safe mode, users of contactor by going to the start menu-> click on your user name-> and choose administrator.
    4.) Windows will begin the first initialization for this account.
    5.) once connected, open the command prompt, this time as a Director. (Make a right click-> Run as administrator).
    6.) type "net user administrator / Active: Yes" to set the admin account as 'active'. It will now be shown outside of safe mode.
    7.) restart your computer and log in as administrator again. You can now add users and to play with the permissions etc. (metro options are not available in safe mode, where the reset).
    How to remove your old account of 'lost' and synchronize your new account with the microsoft account.
    1.) create a new account via the control panel users. Don't forget to give you administrator rights.
    (2.) to remove your lost old account by typing "net use /del" in an administrator command prompt. You need to know your old account name, good luck with this one.
    3.) go into the settings of your pc: open the context menu on the right-> settings-> "change PC settings."
    (4.) to go to the users-> Select 'switch to a Microsoft account» tab
    I hope this helps!

  • How to disable the SOS on Apple Watch 2 function

    How to disable the SOS on Apple Watch 2 function?

    Hello

    It is not currently possible to completely disable the SOS emergency feature.

    However, to disable "hold to call auto":

    • On your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > General > emergency SOS - deactivate Hold to call self.
  • How to disable the feature CALL SOS?

    I've just updated to iOS 10 and 3 watch OS, but I can't find how to disable the feature of emergency SOS on my Apple Watch.

    I thought it would be a good feature for me so I turned it on, but my fingers are clumsy, so I struck the wrong cursor when I turned off my watch and accidentally, I called 911. I've disabled "Stick to Auto Call" and deleted all my contacts SOS in general in the application to watch on my iPhone and I restarted the iPhone and the Apple Watch, but emergency SOS still shows on my watch when I want to turn off my watch.

    I think that before I turned emergency SOS, I saw "Power Reserve" under the "Power Off". I read that once you turn Hold for Auto call in the app shows and then turn off, the cursor of SOS emergency will always be displayed when you turn off the watch.

    How can I disable the cursor of emergency SOS when I turn off my Apple Watch? Can I use Reset under general, or désapparier my watch and pair again? I don't want to do that, because it would take a lot of time to get all my settings that I want them to be.

    Hello

    I'm not aware of any option settings to remove the emergency SOS cursor in the menu that appears on pressing them and holding the button.

    If you want Apple to consider adding an option to disable the feature, you can submit a request here:

    How to disable permanently the spell check in Notes?

    Here are my steps:

    1. With the help of Notes in OS X 10.11.5, click Edit/spelling and grammar and then clearly the 2 options "check spelling as you type" and "automatically correct spelling."

  • How to disable alerts in shared calendars?

    Hi all

    My question is this: is it possible (and if so, how) to disable alerts on changes in a calendar shared on ios 9?

    Calendar sharing 'A' from mac to iphone to my wife, and whenever I change something in an event it receives an alert on the screen of her phone, with the sound.

    Is there a way to remove the notifications on every single events change?

    Thanks for your help

    Hi bart,.

    I understand that you want to disable specific notifications on the iPhone of your wife? You can certainly take the control whose opinions are given on your iOS device.

    To change notifications for that agenda shared so that an alert is not indicated for each change made to the calendar on your wife's iPhone, go to settings > Notifications > calendar > calendar changes. You can then select the option to "None" so that no alert is displayed on his phone when there is a change to the shared calendar. The this link below will also be you become familiar with the different settings that you can use to adjust your alerts specifically to your liking!

    Use the Notifications on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    Have a great day.

  • I don't have a message to tell me the image my takes up screen is set to full screen. How to disable the who and the fade slow when he goes to fs?

    In Firefox 42

    When a site like youtube when I make the video fullscreen it just melted slow useless when it does. And then tells me that it is full screen. I know that it is full screen for two reasons. One, I hit the button fullscreen. Two, the video takes up my entire screen. The message point. Use the fade. How can I disable them?

    To disable the fade, you can change these preferences of the topic: config page.

    • full-screen - api .transition - duration.enter: "0 0".
    • full-screen - api .transition - duration.leave: "0 0".

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    I do not know how to disable the warning, but it might be possible to hide this message with code to userChrome.css or elegant.
    This message is displayed for security reasons because a malicious script can switch to full screen mode and take over the entire window without noticing you (i.e. show a fake office).

  • How to disable the photos app to compress the video?

    When to use photos app to manage the photo and video (for example, automatically import the iPhone for photos), if I drag a video in the library of photos on the desktop, the application can continue to block, without warning, without answers, I thought that something is wrong and try to kill the App actually found it is because the app is compress the video file. I must say that it is really a lousy design. Why can't slide video original in a folder? I don't like the decommissioned video. In addition, why can't photos give a warning indicating that the application is busy on video processing, but give the user a terrible experience? Could someone tell me how to disable compression of the video? Thank you very much.

    Do not drag all that fate Photos - export (menu, file == > export) and if you want no compression or other changes export only the original unmodified - giving you an exact bit for bit copy of the image you impoerted
