How do you disable the User Access Control in Vista?
 
There are a few ways...

I prefer:

From the control panel, select User Accounts and Family Safety. Select User
Accounts. The one on the bottom is Turn User Account Control on or off.


Done!

....and I like:

Start | User icon at top of right hand column | Turn UAC on /off

It's the most direct method I've found... but ymmv...

Sticking with the car and brakes analogy ... it's usually a good idea to
'disengage' the brake when you want to actually move ; )

That was a good one :-)
Initial analogy was poor IMHO. It's not brakes. It's a seat belt. And
it's a good idea to fasten it before you actually move. Someone can
argue that it limits one's freedom during driving though. It is indeed.
But this is how it protects you actually...

Agreed .... I'm all for safety and yes, if anything, the initial analogy was
weak : - )
 
UAC is more like an extremely annoying mother-in-law,
questioning everything that you do and making your
life as difficult as possible. Of course, it's because
she knows what is best for you.

Don't blame Vista for your family issues - it's not Microsoft's fault. :)
 
I see UAC more as the ignition ... where you have to be the one starting the
car before it will run... although a car is a poor analogy in this case :).

Fortunately, no actual over-bearing mother-in-law in my life.
Also, the mother-in-law on this computer has been sent packing.

No matter what analogy is drawn you will find a way to make it suit your own
opinion.
