How can I turn off warnings when deleting files within a user account? ie. I
don't want to get these warnings when deleting files from my desktop or
documents etc.

I have Home Premium so if your answer relates to secpol.msc I'll need
registry hack or alternative method.

Thanks,
Sorry if this question has been asked but when I googled I only found
answers that related to security policy
 
If you get a rogue program installed on your computer as a drive by
download, you don't want to know if it starts deleting your files. I sure
would.

After the computer has finally been set up to your liking there will be darn
few prompts that annoy you.

But it is your decision to turn them off. With UAC off, you may as well be
running Windows XP.

I'm not asking to turn of UAC all together just the deletion of files within
a user. Unless someone can bypass UAC it still requires a user to grant
permission before it installs. So, if someone can bypass UAC asking
permission to install it wont matter what features of UAC are turned on or
off.

I have seen lots of people say UAC is interfering with file deletion.
However I don't get that problem, I don't know why. My UAC is fully enabled
and I don't get prompts when deleting stuff. All I get is it a.sking for
confirmation of deletion.
