Neal: I'm a Win 7 newbie wrestling with UAC. I have it *on* - next to the highest level, and assume it's a good thing not to defeat UAC.
But I have a couple of programs (DX Monitor and Acronis) that, when clicked to open, bring up the UAC message: Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to your computer? If I click *yes*, DX Monitor or Acronis will open normally. I find this behavior annoying, and would prefer the program to open immediately without the UAC message. *_Is there a way to make programs bypass the UAC message and open normally?_ (*Opening as Administrator still brings up the UAC message) *__ *I have tried simply turning off UAC. (Again, I gather this is not a good idea). DX Monitor then opened normally, as did my other programs, *except DXBase*. When I tried to open DXBase, I got a message to the effect "cannot open this program from C:\Program Files/k6rim.mdb" That's interesting, because DXBase is installed in C:/DXbase_2007, not in Program Files. And why would it not use the normal .exe file? In any event, here's my second question: _*If I want to turn UAC off, how do I get DXBase to start? *(i.e., how do I solve the path issue mentioned above?) _With thanks and 73, Al, K6RIM ______________________________________________________________ Dxbase mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dxbase Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
