If you are tired of constantly pop-up and pop-up messages of threateningly intimidating content, and you are completely and completely confident in the impeccably implemented protection of the antivirus program installed on your machine, then do everything as they say! How to disable UAC in Windows 7: they tell you - you do! What could be easier?
Unclassified Security Department
In order to protect the computer system and not allow "everyone to poke the code where it is not necessary," a special service was developed and introduced into the Windows 7 software environment, the responsibility of which was the process of tracking changes in the "seven" registry. Perhaps you also wondered how to turn off UAC in Windows 7, after multiple and unsuccessful attempts to install the much-needed program, the installation of which involves making your own “corrections” to the OS. The tracking service, referred to in the English version as User Account Control, allows you to reduce the level of unauthorized access to a minimum, of course, with the obvious manifestation of active actions on the part of the user or a self-installing application from the Internet. By disabling control, you thereby allow the software, at its discretion, to make certain settings in the registry of your operating system. However, the correct operation of UAC depends on some key factors: the novelty of the software, its quality value and the intended purpose of certification. Using the material in this article, you can personally deprive the authority of this security department, the effectiveness of which today is somewhat contrary to user needs. To the question: “Why?” - see the answer below.
They ran too far ahead ...
Microsoft developers rushed to implement the protection segment for this purpose. Today this is clear to most users of the G7, and the usability of the G8 suffers no less than the older "sister". Proof of this is the often flickering search queries "disable UAC Windows 8". And yet, why did the specialists turn out to be so short-sighted, and why do we need such an extremely senseless participation of the "inferior" security service, which in vain consumes the system resources of our machines? The worst part is that the good intentions of the UAC service drive inexperienced users crazy, completely discouraging them from installing anything that contains program code, and this, by the way, is all software. So, when installing Windows 7, you will have to face an existing problem, and in particular: when installing old software, a conflict restricting your rights is inevitable, the serious influence of new utilities also falls under the “suspicion” of the OS ... Therefore, seeing the problematic nature of the circumstances, the user there is only one thing left: resort to the option “disable UAC”. It should be noted that it is advisable to neutralize only some components of the useful service. However, the responsibility for the installed software always rested with the user.
Forewarned is forearmed
The fact is that the actual solution to the question of how to disable UAC in Windows 7 is actually literally simple. However, before you deactivate the corresponding settings, you need to understand the following:
- "User Account Control" warns the user about the likelihood of adverse consequences as a result of changes to the registry of the system.
- You must be aware of the hazard by disabling the UAC service.
- Most users cannot determine the “pest” by their characteristic qualities, and a professional will probably have to think a little about the appropriateness of the installed program in the computer registry.
From all the above, we can conclude: you can not "dismiss" the security department completely, it is advisable to elementary "reduction". In other words, it is more rational to disable UAC Windows 8.1 in part without affecting critical system parameters. This will allow you to get rid of annoying messages. We turn to the practical part of our review.
Effective administration with an example
Eights
- By pressing the key combination Win + Q, the user will be given the opportunity to search.
- Enter - UAC. Then the Enter button.
- Next, select the “Parameters” tab, on the left side of the interface click on the search result: “Change parameters ... records”.
- In the menu "Credential Management Settings ..." drag the slider to the bottom. Which will be a complete shutdown of UAC.
Do not be afraid, the system, as before, is under the tireless control of your antivirus and firewall.
Deactivation in the registry editor
A fairly serious operation, so be careful when implementing the following recommendations:
- You need to use the familiar Win + Q keyboard shortcut.
- In the search line, register regedit.
- Then activate the Apps tab below.
- Enter the registry editor as administrator (hold the right button) to make changes.
- We go into the branch and follow the path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ System.
- In the System folder, select the EnableUA line.
- Double-clicking on an item will open a window in which you want to change the value 1 to 0.
- Reboot
"Aerobatics" completed.
Recommended Action: Completely Disabling UAC
The most effective way, but by implementing this method, you yourself will cut through a gap in the protection of unauthorized access. The photo in this description shows which items need to be changed, but again - this is an extremely undesirable procedure.
The most acceptable and painless way
Download and install the ElevatedShortcut utility. Free opportunity to ward off all suspicions from using a trusted program. Moreover, the usefulness of UAC remains unchanged.
- Launch the app.
- Change the language through Setting in the lower left part of the program working window.
- In the first checkbox, specify the directory in which the executable file (* exe) of favorable software is located.
- In the 3rd paragraph, enter the location of the high priority label.
- Then "OK."
Now nothing can interfere with the work of the specified program!
How to disable UAC in Windows 7 - command method number 1
Often in the "seven" the standard deactivation option does not work:
- Start Menu Click on the account avatar.
- The "Account Management ... User Account Settings" window, the last item is "Change ... Accounts".
- Slider down. Reboot
Using the command line
This method allows you to disable UAC without too much effort:
- Open the start menu, enter cmd in the search bar. Launch the app.
- Copy the command below to the window.
- C: \ Windows \ System32 \ cmd.exe / k C: \ Windows \ System32 \ reg.exe ADD HKLM \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ System / v EnableLUA
/ t REG_DWORD / d 0 / f - Reboot.
Through the registry editor
Almost unchanged method, which is described in the section on Windows 8, also allows you to disable when using the same script, but already in the "seven". The only difference is the entrance to the registry editor, because the regedit command will have to be written from the Start menu.
Widows Vista: Disabling UAC
In this system, the "User Account Control" service is deactivated much easier than in subsequent versions of the operating systems of the Microsoft family. But it was with this OS that the “helpful controller” began to exist.
- To disable UAC Vista, go to the Start menu.
- Then click on the “Control Panel” tab.
- We find "Accounts ...".
- Uncheck the box next to "Use control ...".
- We agree with the changes made to the “Ok” settings.
- Reboot the computer.
For Vista, this action can have a much more serious effect on the system’s performance, since drivers already conflict frequently in an incompletely modified OS. Such a shutdown may be the culprit of the "crash of Windows Vista" situation. So it is recommended that you still refrain from deactivating the control service. Only in emergency situations, you can resort to shutdown: installing a program or application. Then turn it on again.
Finally
In a friendly Win 7 UAC, there are several ways to disable it. In this article, you met one of them. After considering the basic methods of deactivating the registry change control service using the example of the most frequently used systems, you just have to put the acquired knowledge into practice. I wish you success in mastering the computer and the accompanying process of its operation - the installed operating system, which, hopefully, will not be UAC in the near future. Happily!
