Windows 8 UAC  Reply with quote  

For anybody that's interested...

You can't disable UAC through the normal Control Panel in 8 as you can in 7, but you can still disable it.

Start > Run > gpedit.msc

Code

Computer Configuration
 Windows Settings
  Security Settings
    Local Policies
      Security Options


Set "User Account Control: Run all administrators in Admin Approval Mode" to Disabled.

Not particularly fancy/complicated, but I finally got tired of it nagging me and decided to kill it. This also resolves issues with applications that run as admin at startup not coming up.
