Vista home premium UAC

A brand new, computer can do anything without recvng the guest for the administrator password. not only I do not know the password, there is no place to type in security ("windows needs your permission... ") box HELP very frustrated!

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.

However the user account control would invite you for permissions.

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:

http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/0eeb9ddd-ddaa-4cc5-a092-9908305665471033.mspx

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.

Thank you

  • KB2296011 causes the blank screen in Windows Vista Home Premium?

    I'm troubleshooting an issue with an installation of Windows Vista Home Premium on a laptop. After Tuesday October 12 updates, the laptop goes to a blue screen after authentication with any account. There is a mobile cursor mouse, but nothing else. C/a. gives the menu, but "Start Task Manager" has no effect, restart will only work.

    I am able to login normally mode without failure. Remove the update KB2296011 removes the problem, I narrowed down it to only this update. It is now necessary to restart and use system restore to go back before this particular update to access Windows.

    I did the following to troubleshoot:

    (1) I tried to install the system update tool, which had no effect.

    (2) I tried to install the KB2296011 update manually after downloading, the problem returns after installing.

    (3) I tried to install the KB2296011 update manually mode without failure by another post here, but this is not possible, which gives the following error: "Windows Update Standalone Installer: Installer encountered an error: 0x8007043c.»  This service cannot be started in Mode safe. »

    It seems up to present have no way to obtain this update to install without the origin of the white screen issue. Please advice, thank you.

    OK, it looks like at this will be my last post.

    This technician seems to address the issue much differently from the rest. After the things we have done in my previous post, he seems convinced that the problem occurs when this security update is installed, it thinks it's UAC which is damaged, and possibly other files. If its resolution suggested the problem is to run a repair on Vista installation, in order to repair potentially damaged or corrupted files. This would correspond well with hijackware theory posted earlier, too.

    It seems door by another symptom not reported to me or noticed until now. With or without UAC enabled, standard users cannot connect. It passes the connection, in the preparation of your office for a disconnection. Administrative users can connect very well. As the primary user of the machine is an administrator (of course!), this was not noticed until I created a Standard user to test and found this problem.

    I hope than a repair installation (or even better, an upgrade, as I prefer to simply wipe the HD and start over) will solve the problem. The machine has 2 GB of RAM and a 2 GHz dual core chip, so I think it can handle very well (my wife does mobile) Win7.

    I hope that all of this novel, we have written here will help others as well.

  • Windows Vista Home Premium update froze during the 'configuration' June 30, 2009.

    Received notification of five updates to install on my computer Windows Vista Home Premium, one of them being Internet Explorer 8.   All the downloaded slowly.   Each of them appeared to install, but slowly and I left the computer while he was installing the 3rd update.   When I came back it had evolved in the 'Configuration' screen (always see after there are updates and it restarts) and sat there for hours.   It reads "Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3, 0% complete.  The percentage of nevers turns off 0%.   I finally turned off the computer and when she started he said windows had not closed properly so I chose the Safe Mode option.   He immediately went the same configuration screen.  I left it again for 4 hours, but no change.   What should I do?

    The laptop is a HP tablet PC.

    Here's how to uninstall the ones you don't want.

    And how to change the settings of update and IE8 HIDE update!

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

    > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

    In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the bad.

    > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

    See you soon.

  • Satellite P200: Screensaver does not start on Vista Home Premium

    Hi people!

    I tried to apply the option on my laptop screen saver (Satellite P200), equipped with Vista Home Premium, but it does not; the laptop everything continues to run after the game of elapsed time. Is this a known problem with Vista? All suggestions received with gratitude, thank you!

    ChrisB

    Hello

    Can I ask you if you use the Microsoft wireless mouse?
    I discovered that this may affect the functionality of the screensaver on Vista OS.

    Strange!

    Then maybe you should check out this MS article:

  • Satellite A200 - Vista Home Premium to ultimate upgrade

    Hi back from the guy with a new query.

    "" I'm looking to upgrade Vista Home Premium to Ultimate... checked the requirements of what is known on the "Windows anytime upgrade" site and I can you there is a lot of conflicting ideas on how its all done up to the fact that I would need a disc to upgrade mailed to me.

    After reading a few other forums recently, the answer lies in what you guys can or perhaps are not able to advise me... and the question is:

    Only the so-called "rescue disk" provided with the purchase, IE the Windows operating system disk... ALL CONTAIN THE ' VISTA "SYSTEMS AVAILABLE..." Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate? and very unlikely, but she coded upgrade or anything like that, as its meant to be to perform upgrades?

    Thanks a lot again in anticipation of your kind comments

    Andrew.

    Firs of all I think you should know that it is a forum for users and to my knowledge, there is no guy from Toshiba which could provide instructions.
    I know, it's, your Toshiba Recovery DVD contains the same Win Vista that was preinstalled on your laptop.
    It seems that you bought this laptop with Vista Home Premium and this operating system should be placed on the recovery media.

    Please DON t mix the Toshiba Recovery DVD with a DVD of new, original and clean Microsoft Vista.
    Toshiba Recovery contains an image include the OS, drivers, tools and additional software.
    It s already active.

    The MS Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista but to use a version of Vista that a right serial key must be inserted.

    Hope I could make a clarification.

  • Would Satellite U300-11V running Vista Home Premium 64?

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Satellite U300-11V

    The laptop came with Vista Home Premium (32) and I would like to upgrade to the 64-bit version and I wonder if my hardware is actually compatible with it.

    I tried the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor, but that had nothing to do with 32 vs 64...

    You can find the full specifications of my laptop to the:
    http://UK.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=132428&disc _ MODEL = 1 & service = UK & tab = 2 #2

    Any suggestion would be deeply appreciated

    Kind regards
    R

    Of course, it s compatible with Vista 64 bit OS.
    Satellite U300-11V belongs to the series of PSU30E.
    I checked the European driver Toshiba page if a 64 bit Vista drivers are available, but unfortunately, they are not released.

    However, you would be able to install Vista 64-bit on your laptop, but you have to collect the drivers Vista 64 bit unique from other series of laptop.

    Several series of laptops are equipped with the same features and sometimes, you can use the same drivers on different laptops.
