Hi ,I'm new to the forum and would like to say hi to all.
I am having problems with the dreaded UAC "user account conrol" of windows 7 and my new upgrade of Easy PC V14 still asks for permission to start even though I have set Administrator rights for all including public.

my advice is turn UAC off.

Along with everything else that isn't required to point and click on
a desktop.

Windows-7 is an appalling bodge job.

Have found a solution.
I had upgraded from v8 to v14 and run as administrator was set in compatibility mode in v8 which was transferred to v14.
Disabling run as administrator has cured the problem.

If you don't disable UAC, you will still experience some minor compatibility problems - mainly because for years Microsoft have been telling developers that access by programs to certain sections of the registry is unrestricted - then moved the goalposts with Vista and Win 7.
