As far as advanced settings are concerned, you can double-click UAC Pass' executable file to bring up a standard window and disable silent mode, create batch files, enable relative paths, and so on. UAC Pass has a good response time and quickly applies the new changes, unlike UAC that requires you to restart the computer.
We have not come across any issues throughout our evaluation, as the tool did not hang, crash or pop up error dialogs. All in all, UAC Pass serves its purpose in an efficient manner and without complications. A simple trick to get the tracer. Once the service is running, you can launch as many trusted shortcuts as you want without getting the UAC prompt. There are separate bit and bit installers so make sure you download the correct one. Click Action from the menu and select Create Task. Fill in the Name and optionally the Description box.
This is the option that elevates the task to bypass the UAC prompt. Without it, the task and program you are trying to launch will silently fail. Optionally you can also specify any command line arguments and a different starting folder if required. Click OK. You can manually run the program directly from Task Scheduler, right click on the task and select Run.
Type the following into the location box and click Next. Any name can be used for the shortcut at the next window. Finally, click the Finish button. Whenever you need to run the program without a UAC prompt, simply double click the shortcut which has been created. Tip: If you want to start the elevated program in question when booting into Windows or during user logon, a simple additional step when creating the scheduled task is required.
After step 5 above, select the Actions tab and click New. At startup will only run the task during a full boot while log on will run whenever you sign in which includes after signing out or at boot.
Using this option along with the steps above will allow option 4 UAC Trust Shortcut to launch its tracer. However, it is good to know that there is a way to bypass the UAC restriction using different ways if needed.
If you have UAC enabled and would like to keep it that way, or would like to allow another user access to a safe file without needing a prompt, then these tips could be useful if you need to run certain programs that require elevation when they startup. Hope this helps someone! Thank you for writing this, Raymond.
I opted for the Task Scheduler route. Then all worked, except the shortcut to the task, which did not. Thanks again. Would it be time to update this thread? UAC drives me nut with a home non shared pc. I wonder why W10 or rather MS does not give us something more flexible and easier to use, that we have to use 3rd party pgr.
Just like so many other features that could have a on and off button or setting to have control on our machine. I tried the UAC Trust program and it seemed to work well. However there is a big problem: It only works until the next reboot. This is the case even though UAC Trust is enabled at startup. Hallo, The Task Scheduler option worked fine for the program, but when I nominated a file type to open with the program, and then clicked on a file to open the program, it still came up with the UAC prompt.
Is there a way round this? Thanks a lot to the author of the article. Very good explanation especially the fourth option. But if I enter the exact same text into my Run window it launches the program just fine. What is missing???? I used method 4 on Windows So what are the steps to undo what I have done? There is NO information which programs are currently under its control. WinZip will let them autostart whenever Windows is booted.
To do it, create the RunAsUser. REG file, copy the following code into it, save and import it into the Windows registry by double clicking on the reg file you will need administrator permissions to apply this change. Using this variable, you can specify the compatibility settings to be used when starting a program.
There are the following parameters:. The following CMD code enables the RunAsInvoker mode for the current process and runs the specified program without elevation:. As we said above, Windows 10 displays a UAC shield icon for programs that require elevation to run. Developers set this requirement when compiling the application in the program manifest.
You can edit the manifest of any exe file and disable the requirement to run the program in elevated mode. To edit the program manifest, you can use the free Resource Hacker tool. Open the executable file of the app in Resource Hacker.
In the tree on the left, go to the Manifest section and open the program manifest. Pay attention to the following xml section:. It is thanks to the requireAdministrator option that Windows always tries to run this program as an administrator. Note that now the UAC shield has disappeared from the program icon, and you can run it without asking for administrator password with the current user permissions.
In this case, you can force the program to use an external manifest file. Create a plain text file appname. Change requireAdministrator to asInvoker. Save the manifest file. To have Windows always try to use the external manifest file when launching exe files, enable a special registry parameter:. Restart Windows and make sure the program is using an external manifest file that says to run without administrator privileges.
Are you able to help me? I cannot import the. REG file without having to use an admin Registry Editor, it gives me an error otherwise. Use the bat file to run your application instead of the reg file that should be imported into the registry. The whole point is to remove the extra step of clicking yes on the UAC prompt, not replace that with a different step of dragging and dropping.
Can you also install an exe with this method and then freely use it without dragging and dropping? Different problem, maybe a 32bits program running on 64bits computer or reverse, or maybe you need the compatibility mode try the troubleshooter.
No need for insults ya smelly fish man. You may be able to do what you need using the Task Scheduler method. Look it up, as it will allow you to run a program with elevated privileges.
To use UAC Pass, you can drag n' drop a program or shortcut to the uacpass. From there you will need to select a location for the new UAC disabled shortcut. If and when you want to undo the changes you have made you can send the new shortcut to Recycle Bin. It also includes some advanced options to choose from which can be accessed by double-clicking the executable file.
This action will bring up a standard window and disable silent mode, create batch files, enable relative paths, etc. We have included both 32 and 64 bit for your convenience, but per the author 64 bit is recommended as it has been tested and 32 has not. There are a few customization options available for the interface color as well as always on top, a window position reminder and a log for all tasks created with UAC Pass.
UAC Pass will be an asset to users of all skill levels who like to have more efficient control over the administration of UAC rights in a case by case manner rather than one size fits all.
