| | Group Policy - I need to write a script to run on shutdown I am trying to run a batch file at shutdown in Vista containing : C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /k %windir%\System32\reg.exe ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v EnableLUA /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f so I can automatically turn off UACand keep UAC off at every boot (it keeps turning back on). I could do a script in XP but it seems I have no gpedit.msc in Vista. The Group Policy and Group Policy Users folders are both empty in C:\Windows\system32. This is an upgrade version of Vista Home Premium installed as a clean (full) install and it is activated. What am I missing? Wildcat |

| | Re: Group Policy - I need to write a script to run on shutdown Why not go to the Control panel, select User Accounts and just turn off UAC?

| | Re: Group Policy - I need to write a script to run on shutdown I think Windows Defender keeps turning it back on and then I would not have to turn it off again and reboot.
