User account control is basic to Windows Vista Home Premium edition

Not so much a question as a query.

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium, however, when a program request authorisation via the UAC, the style is Vista Basic.

No problem, but I was wondering if this is normal? Thank you very much for any guidance.

Hi Blackpanthar,

UAC temporarily disables the Windows Vista's Aero interface and appearance background everything is changed is displayed without transparency and this is normal.

    Hello and thank you for taking the time to review my problems and for any help you can offer.

    I am running Vista Home Premium, Windows Mail 6.0.6000.16386 and free AVAST version 7.0.1466 program v.  When searching for error codes that I receive, I can see this is perhaps a problem with the anti-virus software, but no one says how to solve problems.

    First error: your (or SMTP/POP3) server has not responded in 90 seconds.  You want to wait 90 seconds for the server to respond?   It doesn't matter if I have a bit of waiting time or even increase the time-out threshold.

    Glad to hear it's fixed. This is probably the feature analysis of Avast and most of the other AV e-mail programs. Keep the following in mind that if this happens again.

    It is safe to turn off the analysis of e-mail messages. See:

    Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email:
    http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

    Disable the email option in your antivirus scanning software:

    And it is from Symantec, but applies to all anti-virus programs.

    My computer is always protected against viruses if I disable e-mail analysis?

    Disable e-mail analysis won't let you without protection against viruses that are distributed as attachments to email. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans incoming files as they are saved on your hard drive, email and attachments to emails. Scan to email is just another layer on top of that. To make sure that Auto-Protect provides maximum protection, keep active Auto-Protect and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have the most recent virus definitions.

  • I want to run Chkdsk C:/r, I get a message that I need to run in HIGH mode. How high mode? I am the PC if the owner should be able to do anything! I have Windows Vista Home Premium edition. Thank you

    I think that the above covers it.

    Start > Search box > type: cmd

    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator". Provide the password/OK for the UAC area and opens a command prompt. Now, you can enter your orders.

    Even if you run as administrator (not recommended), you should always altitude for some things that affect the system globally.

    User - recommended configuration (Vista and Win7) accounts

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all other Windows 7, Vista, and modern operating systems are operating systems multi-user with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want account only one user with administrator privileges on Vista and Windows 7 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 may require more work you want to do. Better not to get into a bad situation at first.

    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. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. 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).

  • I have problems keeping records and files of the administrator and the user separate in my laptop (HP Pavilion dv6700) under Windows Vista Home Premium.

    I have problems separating records and files of the administrator and the user. My computer is a laptop (HP Pavilion dv6700), used as a home computer only by myself, I like to keep the two distinct roles, but am unable to as Vista seems to be considered as one and the same. This scenario has arisen as follows:

    Initially, when I bought the laptop - approx. 18 months back - Windows Vista Home Premium was preinstalled, with the name 'Administrator' as an administrator. To customize the operating system and to use safely, I installed a user 'Renault', as a Standard account user.

    After awhile, I changed the name of the Director of "Renault", for reasons I have can not remember now. This caused Vista to combine folders and files of the two "users" in one, I found difficult to deal with, that I could not operate my laptop as just a Standard user, but is still considered the "administrator." On the one hand, this greatly increased spam in my email accounts. So I tried to reset the name of the administrator as 'Administrator' itself and keep my user name as "Renault", as originally the case.  But Vista me has failed to create a new user under the name "Administrator". So I created a new user under the name "System administrator", with administrative privileges. This has been accepted by Vista.

    But I forgot to change the user account for 'Renault', on the Standard account, so there was BOTH administrator accounts at the same time on my laptop! I realized that now only. The net result was that all the files that I created under the system administrator user were still being displayed under the user account of Renault. A few days back, I realized this and tried to separate the files correctly, but it has not been possible. No matter what I copied the account of the user in the files under the system administrator account, the files have been copied on account of the user himself.

    I tried to fix this by changing the name of the user account in something very different, AND as a Standard user. but this also does not work, as all folders and files under the administrator account system shows it as being under the user account of "Renault" only!

    Then, I deleted the user 'Renault' from the list of the user, but he was not yet of any help. Whenever I tried to create a new file under the system administrator, Vista responds with the message, "C:\user\Rajaram folder is not present. Will I create a new? ", which defeat the same purpose of my tent to isolate the administrator account and the user account.

    SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE WITH A SOLUTION, - OTHER THAN REFORMATTING MY C:\ DISK AND REINSTALL VISTA AGAIN - TO GET OUT OF THIS MESS, IT SEEMS TO ME YOU HAVE CREATED AND HELP ME TO HAVE AN ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT AND OTHER UNIQUE STANDARD USER ACCOUNTS PROPERLY ISOLATED.

    I would be always grateful for a quick and helpful response.
    Thanks in advance.

    -RAJARAM77
     
    Thanks for your reply. It was very helpful / sorry your proposed solution has not solved my problem. Kind regards. -Rajaram77

    Better to delete the user account except the one that was built in the administrator account that you renamed. Before this backup all your data files of these user accounts.
    Then rename the buil into account administrator as 'administrator '. Then you create another administrator account and use it and never the user built in Administrator account and leave it alone.

    Hi ronnieVron,

    Your copy of Windows is only allowed for 'a machine If you want to put Vista Edition home premium on your 'old laptop"you can buy a new copy of Vista premium. Another point is that copies of Windows was probably preinstalled on your laptop, which means that, putting license on one side, your copy is related to each specific laptop and so, because the copy is related to the material on each laptop, you would have problems on other transfer machine. Anyway you could invalidate your Windows license.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium - problem "task manager has been disabled by your administrator".

    Nice day

    I had problems with my task manager (I use the operating system "Windows Vista Home Premium"). Evertime I try to access the program, he returns with "task manager has been disabled by your administrator". I used different tools to remove malware and got rid of a lot of problems but still can not in Task Manager.

    I created a new user with administrator account and logged on it and had no problem until my 'Task Manager' program open, but when I went back to my origional administrator account the same problem occurred.

    Why can I get to "Task Manager" in my new account administrator and not the former?
    I still have malware in the old account or do I go into my registry and restore something?

    I am at a loss, and any help would be appreciated. I'm worried that I can always have some kind of malware that prevents me to access my task manager in my old account.

    Please give step by step instructions because I am not computer savvy computer even when it comes to fixing the problems of this kind.

    Hello

    Maybe this can help.
    Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

    General example, http://www.ezlan.net/faq#trusted
    Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic. If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .
