How to disable annoying UAC on Windows Vista?

Asked By kim jenkins 10 points N/A Posted on - 08/21/2011

I am using “Windows Vista” and I am facing a problem that every time the (UAC) User Account Control alert box opens. I am really fed up of clicking on the “Continue” button and I want to get rid of this problem.
Whenever I tried to open the features of “Windows Vista” like the Task Scheduler, Network and Sharing Center I always have to confirm about it.
Please tell me how to fix the problem.

Thanks.

To disable UAC using Windows Vista :

 

1. Click Start then open Control Panel.

 

2. Type UAC on the search box above.

 

3. Turn UAC on or off.

4. Uncheck the checkbox beside Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer and then click OK.

 

 

5. Restart your computer for changes to take effect. After a restart, you can no longer deal with UAC again.

 

To disable UAC using Command Line:

 

A sample UAC that is really annoying.
