JohnOne Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 There's something about creating a shortcut of your file in example scripts, you'll need to find it.

anybastard Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi JohnOne , I don't understand BR AnyB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnOne Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Me neither, I just know it allows you to run your file without UAC prompt.

Queener Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) Should be able to modify reg without an issue on windows 8. Example: (Unrelated to yours) RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main", "Start Page", "REG_SZ", "http://msn.com") It changes your homepage to http://msn.com when you open your internet explorer. and you do not need to use #requireadmin for this as long as you log on as the local admin.

anybastard Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi. thanks for your reply @ Reb I will check your suggestion @ Asianqueen My problem is not change the reg value , it works w/o problem . My question is skip UAC popup and run the script w/ admin privilege Br AnyB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queener Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) do you need the #requireadmin to run your script anyways? If so, I don't think you can skip it. Additional suggestion, but not recommend is to turn off UAC completely.

AdamUL Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Have a look the _UAC_SetConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin in my >UAC UDF that reb mentioned. #RequireAdmin #include <UAC.au3> _UAC_SetConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin($UAC_ELEVATE_WITHOUT_PROMPTING) This turns off the UAC prompts for admins, but leaves it for regular users.
