Hi, Is there any way to configure vista to always run a given exe file in elevated mode? I am trying to avoid the loved UAC dialog box messages for my program .... Thank you, Max
There used to be a way to turn on UAC to run automatically, but I can't remember where you turn it on, Maybe someone else remembers.

Max, I found it in a post from last month, This will let you run UAC in a silent mode, without the annoying box message, Down load from the following address, it's free, http://www.tweak-uac.com/ "Max2006" <alanalan1@newsgroup.nospam> wrote in message news:3E17D47B-E9B6-4292-8134-C669F42892A8@microsoft.com... > Hi, > > Is there any way to configure vista to always run a given exe file in > elevated mode? > I am trying to avoid the loved UAC dialog box messages for my program .... > > Thank you, > Max

What's the point of UAC if you generate an automatic and silent "OK" for every prompt? It's like disconnecting the wires from your burglar alarm siren. Or unscrewing the bulb in your car's oil warning light because it keeps coming on. The only way to deal with this is PROPERLY - upgrade the program to one that complies with the XP guidelines. If the program genuinely does require to be run elevated - perhaps because it's performing administrative functions - they you really should be logged on as an administrator anyway, in which case you just get the confirmation prompt, which is a single click (or left arrow followed by Enter).

right click on file and in context menu select properties. then select the compatibilty tab and down near the bottom check box to always run as administartor. note that on the first compatibity menu it should say run as administrator which can be used as a one time pass.
