re: Turn off UAC for one file? Wednesday, May 30, 2007 at 7:10 am Windows Vista Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Frobozz (17 messages posted) I don't think you can. Honestly though. UAC is absolute and total crud; and that's my opinion as an IT professional. I recommend to anyone to just shut it off. Since you're apparently running your brother on his own account that doesn't have admin privileges, that's more than enough to protect your systems from unwanted malware installation if you have his permissions set correctly. Plus, you CAN then give him access to only BF2. UAC is an idiot device meant for people who can't figure out what you have already done. Kudos on your computer savy! :) On Sunday, May 27, 2007 at 12:23 pm, Bikeboy99 wrote: >Vista states Battlefield 2 has an "unidentified publisher," so a UAC screen pops >up asking for admin privileges when I run BF2.
