Windows 7 Question (Read 374 times)

Hey guys, I'm running Windows 7 to play FS and had a question. Is there a way to get rid of the "You need administrator permission to move these files" warning? It comes up for example when I'm copying texture files into an aircraft folder. It is ridiculously annoying because sometimes it will make it so I can't even save a new aircraft.cfg file inside the folder, even though I'm the administrator (it's my computer and I'm the only account on it, with full administrator privileges)

I had to shut UAC off:

Start > Control Panel (Make sure you have 'View by: Small/large icons') > Action Center

Under the 'Security' section, click on 'Choose your UAC level' and put it where you want... I just slid mine down all the way

I was really hoping they had dropped that particular feature.

I was under the impression that it was one of Vistas most hated components. Some people never learn from history. Roll Eyes

They certainly made it easier to shut it down in Windows 7... just a few clicks and that's it... Wink

I'm happy to hear that!

That's what frustrates me the most about my dad's Vista laptop:

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Really?"

"ORly?"
