Hi,
I have been running Vista Business edition for the best part of a year
now, and though there have been some quirks i am happy with it as a
developer platform.
Last monday though it started behaving rather strangely. I might be
wrong but i think it was after a reboot demanded by Vista after
applying some patch that it started:
When UAC prompts for elevated privileges i used to get a dialog if i
wanted to continue or cancel, but now i have to type in my credentials
to continue every time -rather annoying to say the least!
I double cheked that my user is still in the administrator group, and
also the credentials i provide to get elevated privileges are the same
that i use to login to the box.
what could cause this and how do i get Vista to recognize that i am
indeed admin?
thx
