Does this sound familiar to you? It becomes rather annoying that Windows Vista consistently prompts you for any changes involving software installations or system updates. We understand that it’s Microsoft’s attempt to enhance the security in Windows Vista, nevertheless, as a careful user, we find it more annoying than being helpful.

Here’s how you can disable it:

1. From Start -> Control Panel
2. Click “User Accounts and Family Safety”
   
3. Then click “User Accounts”
   
4. Now click “Turn User Account Control on or off”
   
5. Lastly, uncheck “Use User Account Control (UAC) to help protect your computer”, then click on “OK”.
   
6. Done.

Good luck and enjoy!
