Windows 10 continues to change user account controls

• Need to change user account control settings, but cannot access (windows 7Prof.-64 bits)

  Hello

  With Windows 7 Professional 64 bit laptop

  I am the 'Standard user' and the only user of my laptop.  I don't know if I have an administrator account.  I could have or something with a similar name when first setting up laptop and loading Windows program (a few years ago).  But I remember he was causing Windows always show both accounts and choose one to log-in to.  I didn't want no choice since I am the only user of the laptop, so I understood how to make to get rid of the other account (admin?) and kept the Standard user because 'Help' instructions, said it should be used.

  There are so many programs that I can not open because the user account control box "do allow you the following program to make changes...?   The choice of 'Yes' is NEVER highlighted or available - that the choice of the 'no' can be clicked.  And the same dialogue box asks also but it is not a place to type the password "Administrator".  I don't even have a Director. Password, or a password to the Standard user account.

  And I am referring to all kinds of programs that can not open, as "Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool" that I downloaded from the Microsoft Web site.  Or I went into control panel 'User account', but try clicking on 'Change settings User Account Control' brings the same view, "do allow you the following program to make changes to the computer?  Or when, on the page of computer system, I can't access 'Advanced System Settings' due to the same dialog box.

  How to solve this problem?  I'd rather not have the choice of Auditors when Windows opens.  I looked through other similar topics here (only Windows 7 partners), and some seek to make changes to the registry.  It's very intimidating for me.  I'm not a computer scientist at all, but fairly intuitive with the computer.  The problem cornered me.  Another opinion on a thread is said to use "Fix It".  This program is no longer available (we now 2016).  I also experienced this problem all this time but am pretty frustrated and wanted to try the job.

  Should I re - load the Windows program and do something else?

  I hope someone can provide some less intimidating process that touch the registry to fix this.  I really appreciate it.

  Thank you!

  I could have or something with a similar name when first setting up laptop and loading Windows program (a few years ago).

  -> Yes, you did.

  I understood how to make to get rid of the other account (admin?) and kept the Standard user because 'Help' instructions, said it should be used.

  -> It was a bad decision. It was equivalent to throw out your safe master key. There is a much better method to avoid the choice between multiple accounts.

  I don't even have a Director. Password, or a password to the Standard user account.

  -> You had an admin password when your first install Windows.

  I'd rather not have the choice of Auditors when Windows opens.

  -> It takes 30 seconds to remove this choice, without loss of the admin account.

  Some seek to make changes to the registry.

  -> Hacking the registry does not restore your account admin. 'Fix It' will not fix it either.

  Should I re - load the Windows program and do something else?

  -> Your first step must be to determine what accounts you have and whether they are active. It is done as follows:

  1. Mark the first line of code below with your mouse, then press Ctrl + C to copy it.
  2. Click the Start button, press Ctrl + V to paste the code in the run box, and then press ENTER.
  3. Marks of the second line of code below with your mouse, then press Ctrl + C to copy it.
  4. Click the Start button, press Ctrl + V to paste the code in the run box, and then press ENTER.
  5. Open the desktop Accounts.txt file, then copy & paste its contents into your answer.

  cmd.exe /c users > '% userprofile%\Desktop\Accounts.txt '.

  cmd.exe /c net localgroup administrators > '% userprofile%\Desktop\Accounts.txt '.

• The Windows 7 user account control settings does not open

  Hello

  Someone knows a problem where a computer launches the application "change user account control settings?  We are dev work on multiple PCs and need to disable this feature.  Normally, I would run the UAC and just drag the bar down, but I can't even the application to load.  I even tried running: C:\Windows\System32\userAccountControlSetings.exe and it does nothing.

  Thank you
  Sean

  Well, I was not able to understand why the window UAC doesn't appear, however, I managed to disable UAC via the local policy settings.  For reference purposes:

  1. Start > run > gpedit.msc
  2. Computer configuration > Windows settings > security settings > local policies > Security Options
  3. Then define:
  4. User account control: behavior of the guest of elevation for administrators in Admin Approval Mode – set its value toElevate without asking for confirmation.
  5. User account control: detect application installations and prompt for elevation - set its value todisabled.
  6. User account control: only elevate the UIAccess applications that are installed in secure locations - set its value todisabled.
  7. User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode - set its value todisabled.

  Hi Jniles,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

  Do you have connected to your computer as an administrator?

  User Account Control (UAC) notifies you before changes are made to your computer that require administrator-level permissions. The default UAC notifies you when programs try to make changes to your computer, but you can change how often UAC notifies you.

  Open user account control settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type uac, and then click change user account control settings.

  Please visit these links for more information:

• The language bar shows when the user account control appears, supposed to be hidden.

  I've been looking for an answer to this one so vain if this question has already been answered please point me in the right direction. I chose to hide the language bar after a reinstall of windows 7, but whenever the user account control appears I see the language bar sitting there, mocking me. I don't see any option to close, only to hide. It does not show during normal activity, only when the user account control POPs asking if I want to allow a program to run. It's driving me crazy.

  Thanks in advance

  Old post I know but I cannot believe no one could help you guys, I recently noticed this was happening on my pc, have no idea why, but I guess it was something to do with installation/un-installing new software. In any case, here is the solution, because I don't think that these guys have a clue of what you're going on, of course, lol.

  Click on:

  Beginning
  Control Panel
  Clock, language and region
  Regional and Language Options
  Keyboards and languages
  Change keyboards...
  Language bar
  Hidden
  Ok

  Now return to the regional and language options and then click:

  Administrative
  Copy to reserved accounts

  * Type password *, click on:

  System accounts
  Ok
  Ok

  If for any reason any you do not see a password for copy to reserved accounts, and instead, option you have this pop up with checkboxes:

  Copy your regional and language settings to these accounts:

  Default user account (new users)
  System accounts (local system, local service, and network service)
  Just check the two of them and ok.

  There's no more annoying language on UAC bar more.

• User account control interrupts applications full screen

  Programs to auto-update the user account control has a tendency to arise and minimizing applications full screen such as movies or video games. If I do something that causes UAC to pop up, it's good, but I won't be interrupted by it because some program decides to download an update. Is it possible to make may have to wait in the background for me to finish what I'm doing and deal with him and prevent him from minimize applications full screen?

  Hi Bob,

  This behavior of user account control is by design, and you can change it by adjusting the parameters of the UAC.

  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.

  By default, UAC is set to warn you as soon as apps try to make changes to your PC, but you can change how often UAC notifies you.

It works by asking permission when a task requires administrative rights, such as installing software or changing settings affecting other users. We do not recommend disable user account control.

• Lockout C drive. Cannot change the permissions, cannot not disable the user account control, unable to open the access control editor, cannot change the property.

  While trying to change the folder permissions for a second user on my computer, I did something that I lock my C drive.

  When I log in with the administrator account, I get the following popup:

  C:\Windows\System32\SystemPropertiesComputerName.exe
  Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item.

  I am not able to access denied drive from C to all 'access '.

  When I right click on the C drive and select Properties > Security tab > go on, said the popup "cannot open the access control editor. Access is denied. »

  When you select Properties > Security tab > advanced > owner tab > continue, current owner says "unable to display current owner. Can not change, cannot be changed.

  I can't turn off user account control, nothing happens when I click the icon or the text.

  I was able to create the 'hidden' administrator account, but I can't do anything from there, either.

  Any suggestions?

• 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

• Windows continues to change user profile folder

  Hi all
   
  I'm facing a real headache. My computer continues to change user profiles folder every restart 2 or 3. For example, my user name is MSF\Bob. The user profile folder has been C:\Document & Settings\Bob. After a restart, Windows create a C:\Document & Settings\Bob.MSF then Bob.MSF.000 and Bob.MSF.001 folder and so on.
   
  Someone has an idea why this is happening and how I can prevent this?
   
  I thank very you much in advance!
   
  Best regards

  Easy question to answer.  You simply have a corrupted profile.

  When Windows detects a corrupted profile, it automatically generates a temporary with names profile as you describe.  Usually, these profiles are deleted when you connect your computer turned off, but not always.  The solution is quite simple.  You just need to recover your corrupt profile.   There are two general approaches.  One is to do a system restore to a point in time before the profile was first damaged.  The other usually involves the creation of a new user and moving profile data on to the new user (you may reset some of your settings).  To do this, choose one of the following articles and follow through:

  PS: Corrupt profiles are almost always accompanied by alteration of the disc as well.  After your recovery, perform a check disk (chkdsk) with the "/ R" or "/ F" option

• Why do some executable programs require Windows Vista user account control to start, while others do not?

  For example, Iobit Advanced System Care 6 requires user account control to start, while none of the programs Microsoft Office requires user account control to start, but they are all executables (*.exe).  Why?

  EXE files may have a small text file embedded in them that controls this behavior (and other). A file called programname.manifest in the same folder can do it too, but one stand-alone exe substitute manifests (vista and later).

  Here is one that requires the Admin run and also uses 6 worm of the common controls.
