Control Panel/User Accounts/Turn User Account Control On or Off?
Wouldn't you think it would be that easy?


I'm the only user and Administrator. W7 RC Build 7100


I had another look in the light of day, just in case the wine had befuddled me more than usual last night. Again, I entered every sub menu.

Absolutely no offer for me to turn of...well, anything really.

Ah! When altering the level at which I am warned of soft arriving etc., I noticed that it was not at default. I went to put it back to that setting and it tells me that I must reboot to Turn my Admin controls ON.

That could be a clue. But, to my certain knowledge, I have never moved this slider from the default. In fact, when W7 arrived, it worked well straight out of the wire.

But, shouldn't it offer to turn it on - if resetting it gives a menu to turn it off?
