Vista Ultimate UAC (User Account Control)

Just about one of the most annoying things in Vista is the UAC irritating pop ups asking "are you sure" turning off UAC is easy > Start > Control Panel > Security > Security Center > Other Security Settings.But other Vista  components like Windows Installer may not run with UAC off. Also UAC actually elevates your permissions "Administrator group", so do you have to put up with it ?

No there is a solution there's a switch that can be set to automatically accept all UAC warnings without compromising Vista security.

Click Start and Control Panel. Switch to Classic View and click on the Administration Tools icon. In the list that opens click on Local Security Policy, and in the next window, Local Policies if UAC is running you'll get a UAC pop-up click OK, in the Local Policies list click Security Options, and scroll down to "User Account Control: Behavior" double-click the title and in the dialogue box change its setting from "Prompt for Consent" to "Elevate without prompting." Click OK and thats it !.

My Vista Ultimate is OK (now i have shut down 15% and altered 35% of it) i cant say that this will work in all versions of Vista.
