Resolution

In theory its a great idea, but in reality its a pain the behind.

To turn off UAC do the following.

1.) Go to control panel

2.) Select User Accounts and Family Safety

3) Then select User Accounts

4) Then select Change User Account Control settings

5) Take the slider down to a more acceptable level. For me its never notify.

6) Then apply all settings and reboot
