    Have you tried creating a new user account? Test the new user account for a few days and see if the problem is resolved. If it is, just delete the account that was giving you problems.
    A very good suggestion @electrotune1200! I tried this and unfortunately the new account was similarly affected on the second and subsequent logins after a restart. Didn't seem to matter whether the account was set up as a "Standard User" or an "Administrator". Even the "Guest" account is affected...

    I have, and the same thing still happens on the second and subsequent logins after a restart.

    Hello again johnburn.

    If this issue only occurs while UAC is disabled, maybe a re-think is in order as there are ways to run trusted programs / apps without a UAC prompt, have a look at the tutorial at the link below.

    How to Create a Elevated Program Shortcut without a UAC Prompt
    Hi @BFK. I had a look at the article in the link and created a couple of shortcuts for the unsigned programs I need to use and it works very nicely thank you very much! So I have enabled UAC which isn't a bad thing to do these days! So I think this ended up being a "win win" for all...

    Thanks for the help and suggestions everyone!
