by passing UAC prompt without turning off UAC for installs?

[markm75]

This may be a dumb question but here goes..

So I run my login script at login, which maps drives, runs an install if not installed.. The only way this works ok under vista is to do the whole scheduled tasks, run at login setting in the script.. which is great...

I dont want to turn UAC off in general.. but would like there to be a way to bypass the .. windows needs your permission to continue dialogue box..

Is there a way to skip that.. or maybe via script code to turn off UAC (without rebooting) and then turn it back on once these are done.. thus avoiding the prompts at login.

Cheers

You may want to look through here as there are different ways you can configure UAC and the way it handles various situations. Its a bit lengthy, but maybe you can find a solution in here. I don't think you can turn UAC off without a reboot.

Ok thanks for those links.. those are good general info ones.

I guess there is no way to do this short of a reboot..

I was hoping for some vbs or batch file switch I could set on the fly (off then back on)..
