What exactly is this password for? I assumed you have a Registry hack that requires an Admin password to approve something in order to proceed.
I understand it would have to be a standard User account for it to need Admin to allow changes, as an Admin would allow it anyway. But then what is the password for? Confuddling
So this is a password to continue beyond User Account prompt which no longer appears?
The password you have to enter is the password for an admin account (doesn't need to be the built in admin account, any other admin account works too). You will have to enter it running a standard user account and using my "Run as administrator" if the console asks for the password. You have to enter this password every time you use my "Run as administrator". You could expand the registry string i changed with the admins password, but it would stay there in clear text then...
Its like the normal "Run as administrator". But the normal "Run as administrator" works with UAC enabled only. I hope its clear now
You know, you can have UAC on for standard users and off for Admin users, right?
Keeping UAC on you also get the benefits of the built in process sandbox, IE and Chrome both use.
OK, thanks for the tip. I'll try :)
Update: I finally got it working. The problem ist that i can't use the built in administrator account that way, because that account is hidden. My way works with every (admin) account. Anyway thanks!
