| | Why UAC pop up for certain file operation? When deleting a file, sometimes UAC pops up requesting confirmation, sometimes it doesn't. When running a .exe file, sometimes UAC pops up (usually newly downloaded files) and sometimes it doesn't (installed .exe). What governs this behavior? How can I make UAC not pop up on a particular file? |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Why UAC pop up for certain file operation? Hello James, When anything requires to be ran as administrator (elevated), it will cause UAC to ask you for permission first. You can read more about UAC in the tutorial below though. User Account Control (UAC) To add program exceptions for UAC, you can use the free Norton UAC Tool. Hope this helps, Shawn  Quote: Originally Posted by james  When deleting a file, sometimes UAC pops up requesting confirmation, sometimes it doesn't.
