Vista

Post by XMoshe »

Hey,

I tried to search for it because I know it's been answered before but I have no clue what to fill in as keywords >.<

I'm wondering (again) how I can shut off the annoying permission thing on Vista. You know where it asks for everything you try to install/start etc. I know it can be shut down since I did it before, but I kinda forgot where hehe..

Thanks ^_^

Change your account to an actual administrative account. That's how I did it when I had vista.

then you must do what zero_doom said. you must be an administrative account first to turn it off i believe.

control panel > user accounts > change your account type

try that :P

The account I'm on (only one account on the laptop) is listed as administrator so that's not it I think >.<

Start>Search System Config>Tools>Turn off UAC then restart

Try that way.

i heard there are some problems with turning off UAC from control panel with certain vista versions (basic/premium)

you can try.... run msconfig > Tool tab > disable UAC > reboot

hope that does the trick.... if not im stumped. maybe do some more research with google.

I'll try something else first, I found something but I'm not sure if that's the right thing. And I'm downloading the sro client atm so I can't restart =p

Ok what I did didn't work, although I think it's the same thing I did the last time. I'll reboot it when I get sro but it's at 50% atm >.<
