re: Using UAC Saturday, November 14, 2009 at 2:14 am Windows 7 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by MartinM (7549 messages posted) The Admin account has many more privileges, so hi-jacking it (from any cause) simply allows much more damage to be done. Further, while you may well be able to repair a limited account from the Admin account, but there's no "higher" account from which you can repair the Admin account - if it is screwed then so are you.
