Vista - weird UAC

I need help to turn off UAC. Unfortunately User Account Control Panel is not
working, because Turn On/Off UAC switch is not working (UAC is on, but the
switch is unchecked, when I check it, next time it's unchecked again and
nothing changes).
So, i need a command or anything else to turn off UAC.

Thanks in advance.

My first question is why do you need to turn off UAC? If you do need to do
it though, try this method. Winkey + R (Run..... box) type MSCONFIG and hit
enter. In the Tools tab, you'll see an option that says Disable UAC. click
that, then click Launch. Reboot, and it's disabled.

I highly recommend that after you install whatever you're needing it turned
off for, that you go back into MSCONFIG and Enable UAC again. It's there
for your protection (and our protection as well).

HTH.

It's worked. Thank you.
I needed to turn off UAC, because some of my programs couldn't write/modify
files in directories (not system directories), and I could copy/move files
only with explorer and not with my file management tool.
