• Access user (UAC) shield appears on a large number of my programs now after Windows Update download and cause problems with some programs, no one knows how to fix this? (Windows 7) (Windows Update post a coupe of weeks)

  Hello

  Windows Update recently made a lot of downloads on my computer about two weeks ago (I run it automatically and it works usually weekly) and he has made some changes to my system that create errors or difficulties with certain programs. The shield of the UAC is now appearing on many more programs for some reason any and now I'm a guest whenever a program is available. which is also appear on my AntiVirus program. Action Center flag appears almost every day now with warnings saying that my AntiVirus program and spyware is off (not sure if this is related to the UAC shield), but when I check my AntiVirus program everything works and after access; the flag of the Action Center shows while all right. Nobody knows how to solve this problem and get rid of the ecu of the UAC on programs (or at least some of them I want to be invited on)? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

  I'm sure I've upgraded to Vista SP2, but not absolute, I can't find a lot of information in the case of the newspapers with the service pack level... only vista combined with some process is perceptible. I bought July ' 09 new and it came pre-installed with Vista on it. I think this is the tool I used to remove McAfee on this; It also came with Norton as an alternative option and both have been removed using their tools to uninstall BitDefender installation instructions walked me through the location and the removal of two of them before installing BitDefender on the computer. My user account is configured as an administrator, but when I right click on programs with the shield of the UAC on them, I'm not running as an administrator. The UAC slider is set at the 2nd ranked (by default); but I do not know how it was listed previous, I wondered about moving down one notch (but he advises not and I don't want to spoil anything).

• Windows Security adds an indicator (a shield) to the icon for the program when it blocks the application?

  Recently, I was infected with the virus, Win7 Antivirus 2012. I finally deleted the partitions on the readers of my trunk and data, reformatted and reinstalled Win7 Professional on the boot drive. Since that time, I was driven mad because I keep seeing small shield flags see the place on the icons of programs. At first, I thought it was the virus, but I noticed that each of these files is the 'block' security property. Do Win7 itself change the icon of the program?

  Hello

  1. are you referring to the shortcut to the program on the desktop icons?

  2. the problem is specific to the particular program icons?

  3. what happens when you try to open a program by using the shortcut on the desktop?

  You can move the mouse over the program icons and see if it gives an error message.

  Note: Items with the shield need an administrative privileges to run.  Most of these things will give a UAC pop-up or must be performed by right click and choose 'run as administrator '.

  The icon indicates that the shortcut will prompt you with a UAC dialog box at the beginning.

  The shield of the UAC (user account control) on programs indicates that you need elevation to run the program, which means that you must run the program as administrator.

  This is not normal, but does not hurt as well. I suggest that you turn off the UAC and check if you have the same problem. You can check the link for more information below:

  User Account Control (UAC) can help you to prevent your computer from unauthorized changes.

• Why FF is recommended to disable the Hotspot shield?

  Hello... I see the warnings of FF on Hotspot Shield. In the last FF and HSS last, I see no problem of stability (18 months ago I wouldn't have said that). But then, there is still this warning.

  The page explaining the warnings seem generic and covers a LOT of things.

  Is there a particular problem these days with allowing the HSS/plugin extension?

  Looks like it might get delivered with unwanted software and not following installation instructions. for use on Firefox. So it will be a case of use at your own risk.

  I guess that if the software is not in conformity with a directive she can break also other guidelines.

• Fs9 not opening - identified problem but need help repair

  I want to thank you in advance for your time. I am trying to install and play flight sim 2004 on windows 7 - a x 64 sys - and when I open fs9.exe splash screen or anything really fails to display.

  I think that is the problem, is that there is no record of FS9, under the %appdata%\Windows\ that basically, I need help trying to solve. Is there anything I can download to replace this file? Or am I just looking in the wrong place.

  Also, I installed it in a different directory, not the directory Program Files (x 86) but rather just C:\FlightSim\

  Hi Jordan,.

  The game does not appear to be installed according to the description of your problem.

  I suggest you log in as administrator or right click on fs9.exe file and run as administrator.

  I think that this is precisely the reason why the FS9 folder does not appear in c:\users\explore \appdata\local\Microsoft\windows\game.

  If this does not work, I suggest that you look into other aspects as well. Follow the steps below.

  Method 1:

  Update display drivers . The flash on the screen could also be because the display drivers are not updated. I would recommend you visit the manufacturer, download and install the latest display drivers for windows 7.

  Method 2:

  I suggest to disable UAC and then try to install the game.

  Note: 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.

  Method 3:

  Temporarily disable all security software and try to install.

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  If the problem persists, then I suggest that you post the question in the Microsoft Flight Simulator Games Forum for further assistance.

  Hey 324pattyd,

  You receive a password prompt to perform all operations, if you connect to a Standard user account.

  You will have to log into the account administrative Previlages. The administrator account would not prompt you to enter the password to perform all operations.

  If logged in as an administrator, you can disable the user account control and run mode altogether. Here are the steps to disable the user account control:

  1. open user accounts by clicking the Start button picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.

  2. click on Turn User Account Control on or off. Need administrator permission if you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  3. Select the use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer check box to turn on UAC, or clear the checkbox to disable UAC, and then click OK.

  Here is an article that will give you information about what is user account control:

  If you are not able to connect to the administrator account and not to know what is the password, you will need to contact your computer manufacturer or seller to verify the password.

  I hope this information helps.
