I get the above error each time windows Vista boots up. The program is AVG
anti-virus Control Center. I think I know whats preventing AVG to load but
don't know the solution. When I disable UAC I have no problem and all loads
as it should. When I re-enable UAC is when this message appears.... but I
can run AVG Control Center manually from within that message. My question
is, is there a way to tell UAC to allow this program to run? I don't know if
you can do that with individual programs as I've looked around User Accounts
and see nothing. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
 
Actually I believe I do have the current version 7.5.487. But I'll uninstall
and re-install after I check Grisoft's site. Thanks Richard for the
response! Lee

Do you have the latest version of AVG? If not, uninstall the version you
have and get the latest one. It is Vista compatible and won't cause this
problem.

One way to not have the programs blocked is to start them with the Task
Scheduler
and check the box marked "Run with highest priveleges". Have them scheduled
for startup or logon.

UAC on Vista has given me some troubles - solution

Right-click the folder containing AVG & despite having admin rights you must
give yourself permission to run/ammend files and you'll not have any more
problems
