Vista - Run everything as admin = disable UAC ?

Hi,

I would like to be able to run everything as admin without each time
selecting "Run as administrator". Is disabling the UAC enough in order to
achieve that or are there other settings to change ?

If that is enough, why can't Vista detect the UAC is not activated and
therefore remove the "Run as admin" from the contextual menu ? This would be
less confusing.

Thanx for your time.

Hi,

Try to change UAC behavior ... secpol.msc -> Security Settings -> Local
Policy -> Security Options:
UAC: Behavior of the elevation prompt for administrators ... - and set it on
Elevate without prompting value

With UAC disabled some misbehaved programs may still fail they will just do
it silently. Using Run as administrator may allow then to run.

Start>Run> and type msconfig and press enter
Click on Tools and then scroll down to Disable UAC and click on Launch. Now
reboot.
After you reboot run the attachment and answer YES, to turn off the
warnings and then reboot once more. You are now set.
