14 DAY TRIAL // User Account Control in Windows Vista is a feature of the operating system that has generated a consistent amount of criticism. As far as I can tell, basic ignorance was the foundation for the UAC complaints that have diminished following the general availability of the operating system. There is one simple reason for this and the people that are running Vista already know that you can barely notice the UAC prompts. For me, Windows Vista UAC interference in my workflow is close to zero.
Microsoft does provide users with numerous ways to disable or tone down the feature. And there is even a piece of free software that centralizes the UAC functionality options into an easy to use interface. TweakUAC 1.0 Enables users to either enable or disable the UAC and also offer an intermediary solution dubbed Quiet Mode.
"If you've used TweakUAC, you've seen the "quiet" option it offers that lets you suppress the elevation prompts of UAC without turning the UAC off completely. In such a mode, you keep all the positive effects of UAC, such as Internet Explorer operating in the protected mode, applications starting without the administrative privileges by default, etc. The only thing that gets changed is that you will no longer see the infamous "Windows needs your permission to continue" messages whenever you attempt to make a change to your Vista configuration," reads an excerpt of the product's description on the TweakUAC official website.
So if you want full centralized control over the User Account Control via a streamlined user interface then TweakUAC is the right solution for you. TweakUAC 1.0 was tested by Softpedia as being 100% Free and is available for download here.
