Annoyingly, it also appears (again!) that Adobe didn’t test properly its software before releasing the software. Please make sure that you have followed the above steps exactly before proceeding with this next series of steps. How to turn UAC off. Click Start and open the Control Panel. Under User Account and Family settings click on the “Add or remove user account”. Click on either your own account (best option) or you can use the Guest account. Under the user account you chose click on the “Go to the main User Account page” link. Under “Make changes to your user account” and click on the “Change security settings” link. In the “Turn on User Account Control (UAC) to make your computer more secure” untick the “Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer”. Click on OK at the button. You will then be given the option to restart now or later – which ever you decide. Notes. Windows will (after you have restarted) make a fuss that UAC is turned off. You can choose to ignore these or stop them entirely if you want. Just click the info bubble that appears and choose the alerts options. To re- enable UAC just follow the steps above again and in Step 6 instead of un- ticking, just tick the box again and restart. What is UAC exactly? It aims to improve the security of Microsoft Windows by limiting application software to standard user privileges until an administrator authorizes an increase in privilege level. In this way, only applications that the user trusts receive higher privileges, and malware should be kept from receiving the privileges necessary to compromise the operating system. In other words, a user account may have administrator privileges assigned to it, but applications that the user runs do not also have those privileges unless they are approved beforehand or the user explicitly authorizes it to have higher privileges.
