Standard user Registry does not prompt UAC
Does anyone know why by default running regedit under a standard user account does not prompt the UAC for administrative credentials?
Under an admin account the UAC does prompt when running regedit, but obviously does not prompt for admin credentials.
I was successful at adding and modifying registry keys under a standard user account. It would seem like restricting access to the registry would be essential for security, any reason why its setup like this?
