Well I know how to turn it off, but i heard that it reduces security. So I was wondering if there was a way to have it skipped. Cause im really tired of having to open something and then click continue, and if I am running intense processes then it goes black for like 3 seconds every time it pops up. Why does it even pop up! but anyways, I just want to know how to get rid of it.

Will that lower the security level?
O and you can also do that by going to control panel, searching UAC then clicking disable. |

Yes, It does lower the security level. UAC was put into place because in XP there are many forms of malicious software that take advantage of the default users administrative privileges. |

Not sure if this has to do with it, but I turned off UAC and windows needed to update and when it asked me to restart I did, and I turned it back on and nothing works. System restore says files are mising, and every system tool isnt working, nor is the internet. I thought about trying to fix it but I want a new computer so im gonna back up my files and trade it in.

That has nothing to do with UAC. If it did, I would suggest enabling UAC and restarting your computer. |
