User account control gives comments administrator privileges?

I am under W7 Home Edition with the guest account disabled. Yet, whenever I try to do something that requires administrator privileges the UAC window opens for a guest or administrator password. I don't even know if there is a password for the comments, but I certainly not invited to have access to administrator functions.

Then open a command window: -.

1. type Net user to display the list of the user accounts on your PC in order to verify there is no accounts that are unauthorized.

2. type comments Net user to see the properties of the guest account.  Halfway, there is an entry account active - you have written, it should have the entry No..   Near the bottom, there is a local group memberships entry that should say only invited.  If it shows also the directors then someone made some changes sneaky seriously on your PC.

3 if there are unknown accounts so that you can use the same procedure to check their properties.

4. If you want to keep a record of the information and then add a space at the end of the commands and type in

> \Desktop\Results.txtyourusernameC:\Users\

etc to create a text file of each result set on your desktop.

for example

NET user comments > C:\Users\Fred\Desktop\Results-GuestAccount.txt

    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.

  • Windows 7 Admin account does not have administrator privileges?

    Hey guys,.

    I'm having a very strange problem here. Everything I do on my computer needs now administrative privileges, otherwise it will not work properly. I'm unable to open iTunes without them because it says that it cannot access the program folder, but if I open it with privileges, it works perfectly. Whenever I try to pin a program to the taskbar, clicking on the "Pin to taskbar" button does nothing. Again right click on the shortcut and select Pin to Taskbar does not work. I can't download any type of files on Google Chrome; nothing happens when I try to record anything.  Chrome is also impossible to record all new cookies as well, and I am also unable to watch Netflix instant Streaming due to a Silverlight issue. Flash work, however.  Whenever I try to delete all files, or move files, in my "Documents" folder, he said: "you have to give administrator privileges... blah blah blah." It worked perfectly when I got the computer, but it seemed just not to work a few weeks ago.


    I have no idea of reversing what is happening on any any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    Hi ImBakinBacon,

    1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    This can occur if the administrator account is corrupted.

    You can try to create a new administrator account and check.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-a-user-account

    Method 2:

    If you are unable to create user account, thenyou, try to disable user account control and check if it helps:

    Step 1:

    Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result

    See how can I change the behavior of user account control by using the slider? :

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-change-the-behavior-of-user-account-control-by-using-the-slider

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

    a. click the Start button, then click all programs followed by accessories

    b. in the menu accessories, click right on the command line option and select'Run as Administrator "."

    c. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked for permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

    d. in the command prompt window, type the command net user administrator / Active: Yes and press ENTER.

    e. close the elevated command prompt.

    f. log (in the Start Menu) and you will see your new administrator integrated next to your current account.

    g. click the photo icon display built-in Administrator account and connect to it.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile

  • 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.

  • User account control problems

    MY ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT HAS BEEN DELETED SOMEHOW. WHEN ANOTHER ACCOUNT IS OPEN AND WE ARE TRYING TO REMOVE A PROGRAM OR START SYSTEM RESTORE THE USER ACCOUNT CONTROL BOX NOW COMES UP TO ASK PERMISSION TO CONTINUE. WE CANNOT ENTER ANY PASSWORD. USER ACCOUNT CONTROL IS TURN OFF MY COMPUTER. HELP PLEASE!

    The first thing to try is go to Safe Mode to see if the disabled built-in Administrator account normally is now available. Enter Safe Mode by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Use your arrow key to select Safe mode, and then press the Enter key. If you see an icon for the administrator on the Welcome screen, log into this account and make your changes. Follow the recommendations for setting up the accounts of user below.

    If you do not see an icon for the administrator mode without failure, post back for further instructions.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is an OS multi-user with system built-in accounts such as administrator, by default, all users and guest. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult. It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but it will take third-party tools and work outside the operating system.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null).

  • In Windows 7 user account control

    Hello

    I have a PC with Windows 7. I downloaded Magellan Content Manager to manage my new GPS Magellan, but whenever I double-click on the program to execute, User Account Control stands up and says: 'do you want to allow the following program... '. ». Is it possible to get the account control user to recognize that I have confidence in the program? I have a number of programs that I downloaded from the Internet and it is not disputed any of them except this one. Any suggestions?

    First of all, is your account of usual user "Administrator" or "Standard user"?  Go to control panel > user accounts for know.

    Even if your account is an account 'Administrator', Windows 7, local administrator accounts run as a standard user except when specifically authorized to do otherwise.  In other words, if you have not made any changes to the system setting, when you try to do something that requires administrator privileges, you will get a UAC prompt.  The difference is that if already logged in as a local administrator, the prompt will ask just for your authorization, like this:

    However, if you are logged as long as standard user, you will be presented with a list of accounts local administrator on the computer and an application to enter a password for one of them, like this:

    Because you get the UAC prompt when you try to Start the program, the question is not what the program could eventually do after it is started (for example, try to save files in system folders), but that the program be appointed - by the code in the program itself - as an "administrator task", i.e., a task that could potentially accomplish administratove missions.  Most applications that are referred to thus show a security shield on the shortcut for the task icon...  I guess the shortcut of the content for your Magellan Manager has a shield, like this:

    I have not tried the following, myself, but this tutorial is intended to be a way to perform a task that normally should be 'high' without causing the UAC prompt to appear, but only if logged in as a local administrator, not a standard user--> http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/11949-elevated-program-shortcut-without-uac-prompt-create.html

  • Why User Account Control allow me on IE without permission after resetting IE

    A few days ago I couldn't get on the Internet because IE would not work and internet connection was ok so out of desperation I did a reset of the EI. It still does not work then a member of the family came and got it works, but now I get the popup to permission to the user account control every time that I log on the desktop by clicking the shortcut of IE.  I went into the folder security and disabled UAC and now I only get this popup whenever I click on the desktop IE. This never used popup lights up when clicking on the shortcut of IE, so something must have happened when I did the reset Internet Explorer.  Does anyone know how to keep control of user account for all but IE?

    I have a feeling that I accidentally changed a setting on IE and probably should not have an IE reset.but now the problem is that I like to keep the popup of User Account Control permission for everyone, but the IE shortcut on my desktop.

    Furthermore, family member right clicking on the desktop for IE shortcut and did something with run as administrator to get IE working again.

    My nephew looked at the problem that I had some time ago, but I told him to forget it because he really didn't have time to work on it. I just kept off UAC all these months and had no problems I do not download anything that I'm not sure. However, a few days ago I went back to this problem. I tried checking with the Compatibility tab, and as said above "Run as Administrator" was unchecked. This time I went to the contextual on properties of Internet Explorer and click on Advanced tab. Then I unchecked the run as Administrator box and I went back and UAC enabled and everything works well. Without UAC popups more!  I also did this for the exchange of information in the start menu and on the Quick Launch bar. For some reason any one on the keyboard had worked this time (he had not earlier) without a popup UAC even before I made the changes.  This is exactly what made me do some exploring more to see if I could get the other IE shortcuts to work.

    I believe that another Member of my family who had helped me to get IE to work when I had problems to make on the internet even after a reset IE active the option "Run as Administrator". He has not been bothered by the popup and said if I was annoyed by it just turn off like he said I had a very good program antivirus (Norton) installed on my computer and it always warns you if a program you want to install is safe or not safe.

    Hope this might help someone else who may have this problem.

  • User account control appears when the is not necessary.

    The user account control appears everytime I open Windows Live Mail. How can I stop this, but retain control of active user account when needed on the other actions of the computer?   Thank you

    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:
