Stopping W7 from asking "Allow Program Execution" on every program
Boggin:
The programs that I boot up would normally have an effect on the system, such as the free version of MBAM and is one of the default settings when UAC is set to default.
But 5 seconds - is life really that short to wait ?
I have my laptops set to check DVD and USB drives before the HDD and the boot menu policy set to legacy in my Win 10 so that I can use the F keys on boot as I did in Win 7.
It may add some time to the boot time but it gives me what I need should I have to recover a machine that won't boot.
It's what it is.
FreeCat:
Well, thanks for your thoughts Boggin.
But, not a solution for me.
5 seconds. Did you flunk math, Boggin?
I am not trying to insult you, but how else can I say this:
Going through 500 (normal job --- sometimes 1,000) photos per job makes each job 2,500 seconds longer which means about 40 minutes longer. 40 wasted minutes. It adds up.
So, I still need a solution. :artist:
Interesting that you are on W10 as I would not touch that if you paid me to use it.
I am not an MS fan; MS the biggest mistake IBM and the public ever made except that without MS (a hog and a thief run by dumb obsessive-compulsive. know-it-all big-government guys) we prolly would not have Apple. :)
FreeCat:
BTW, Boggin, do you have any idea why VLC media player bypasses UAC?
I have not done anything special to UAC and yet it never asks permission to execute when called by EXT.
Thanks in advance. :undecided:
Boggin:
I suppose it will add up when you're doing that many.
As for VLC - don't know but I'll ask to see if someone else can help with the UAC problem.
jpm:
Basically - you need to create a scheduled task with admin privileges and then create a shortcut to that task. VLC may be doing that. I don;t know that for sure, but maybe. Here is how.
