They changed the option from a default of protected mode in some earlier versions to all users in 6.2.20.

I still hate dislike UAC with a passion so I disabled it anyway. After disabling it my desktop gadgets quit working. Why UAC would disable that is beyond me. One of our resident windows gurus (Auggy) showed me a workaround so all is well. Hope they fix that in the RC.

And Ray, I'm with you. Vista _ _ _ _ _. ( Fill in the blanks) :D

One problem fixed with update, only tha' phantom knows what's next. That wing-doosy tinker-toy came on a factory pc, glad I build my own. Me thinks it's another conundrum.

Do people actually pay real money for that VooDoo stuff ?

Even kills the latest Boinc. Of course UAC kills every other program she tries to run as well, so it got chucked immediately. :)

-Turn UAC off
-Or upgrade boinc

Is that correct?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22308192 Tue, 28 Apr 2009 14:04:12 EDT Re: Vista blocks boinc start-up http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22308173 lilhurricane :

I have a check in the box, UAC was turned on.
(Sorry, Ray - I meant me - I have it disabled) :D]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22308173 Tue, 28 Apr 2009 14:01:57 EDT Re: Vista blocks boinc start-up http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22308105 Dersgniw : Yup.. you need the newer version of BOINC. I am running 6.2.19 and I don't have that problem.

Vista is really "smart" and only let's programs start that it feels are safe.. and if it thinks it's not safe, there is absolutely no getting around this besides disabling UAC, which I personally have no desire to do.

It says windows has blocked start-up programs requiring administrative privileges. The only provided option is to allow it, but only until the next power outage. I have Boinc set for all users. Does it have to run as a service? I "think" I have defender disabled, at least it's disabled on start-up.

This is on my mom's remote pc which I try to manage with team viewer.
