Vista - How do I disable the Security Center notice about my UAC being off

In Vista you can disable the UAC ( User Access Control ) from your Control
Panel in the Account folder. However, this will disable this option for your
whole machine, including the normal users that do not have administrator
rights.

You can disable this prompt window for administrators only by changing the
following HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE with the RegEdit.exe program ( this change
requires that RegEdit to be run as administrator ) :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

Thevalue of "ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin" must be 0 ( zero ).
Value 0 = No prompt at all.
Value 1 = Prompt that requires to enter an admistrator password(even if you
are an administrator ).
Value 2 = ( Default ). Prompt that requires an acceptance only.
Note: Normal users will be asked to enter an administative password...

Hi,

I know this thread is slightly out of date, but the problem is yet to be fixed...

First of all, every single person that posted any of the above is a f-ed up idiot. Rowanc88 asked a question about how to turn of the notice of the Security Center about UAC being off. He did not ask how to disable UAC, nor whether it's a good idea or not. No one cares whether you believe turning off UAC is a wise idea or not, some people (like me and rowanc88) simply like it turned off! Also, don't give an explanation on how to turn of all Security Center notices, that was not the question! "Our 'beef' is with UAC". If you don't know the anwser to Rowanc88's problem, don't post anything. So now: How do you disable to notice in the system tray by the Security Center about UAC being off? I don't want any program like TweakUAC or whatever, I want a button somewhere in my Control Panel or some RegEdit stuff.

Jeez...
Laurens,

Just in case the original post didn't get an answer, (using Vista)

Go to the control panel (classic view) and double click Security Center,
Then click - Change the way Security Center alerts me,
Select - Don't notify me and don't show the icon.
Ignore the warning - (not recommended)
Back out and Reboot.

Hello Laurens,

This will show you how to disable specific Security Center warnings such as the UAC one instead.

Security Center Specific Alert Notification

Hope this helps,

Yes! This is what I was looking for. This answers rowanc88 question perfectly. Thanks!

You're welcome.

You might want to consider (next time) just posting your question
instead of chastising previous contributors of an old thread.

That original thread can be found here:

http://forums.techarena.in/vista-security/952106.htm

....and if you must reply to an old thread, including some pertinent
portions of that content in your post would be helpful.

Better yet, opt to use an NNTP client instead of a web based NNTP
gateway.
