All,
I am all for UAC, but..... i think in real life it may not work that well.
I have just installed Vista 5536, I thought I would give UAC anohter go, its
a lot better than prevoius builds. I then installed MS Money, I installed
but it would not open my Money File, so... i played abit, i turned off UAC,
it still did not work, to get it to open my money file i had to create a new
file, let money download an update, then i copied my old file over the new
one that money created everything worked ok.
But.... I have not turned on UAC yet, and i never needed to turn it off in
the first place. I recon, if i had off posted this problem to this group,
the standard reply would have been, try turning UAC off. Most users would
follow that advice and not turn it back on.
It would be nice, if you could login to windows with it OFF by selecing
something on the login screen, this could plaster the desktop with warning
but would let you test things without UAC, it could even tell you if things
that you are doing would not work with UAC like virtual registrys etc.
