Remove "windows needs your permission to continue" prompt

Hello Wallynut,

In Windows Server 2008 I have never been bothered by a User Account Control warning. However UAC is enabled by default: Start -> Control Panel -> User Accounts -> Turn User Account Control On or Off, but I don’t know what this setting does in Server 2008. Like you said there are also some other configuration settings for UAC by running: Start -> Run -> secpol.msc -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> Security Options -> User Account Control: *.

Do you still have the UAC confirmation screen before starting something with a by default? If yes, on which version of Server 2008?

Greetings, Arris

lol, I knew there must have been an easier way.

By default after installing 2008 enterprise edition I had the UAC popup. I am pretty sure I also had the popup when I used 2008 standard also.
Anyway after disabling I no longer get the popup.

Thanks for the great guide.
