So, when does UAC present itself to you
Hey Guys,
I'm not here trying to argue the merits for and against the UAC system, but rather I am trying to get to the bottom of why some people are massively irritated by it, while others hardly ever notice it.
I for one, have used UAC since day 1 with Vista and continue to use it to this day with Windows 7. I've never once disabled it on any computer that I have ever used. It's not that I find the function to be invaluable, but rather I've never really found it to be all that irritating, so I just leave it enabled.
So, I'm running Windows 7 on my home and work computer. It's set using the Windows 7 defaults.
Here are the situations in which I have seen anything from UAC in the past 7 days
1). When I launch Acronis True Image, I have to click a box that says Yes
2). When I launch Malwarebytes, I have to click a box that says Yes
I honestly don't recall seeing it at any other time during this period. I'm going to try and update this thread when I do see a pop-up so I can track just how often that I do or do not see it.
Anybody want to share the same and post your experiences with UAC and how often you are seeing prompts and what you are doing when you see them.
