The UAC (User Account Control) function launched by Microsoft in the Windows Vista system is considered by many users to be a "junk function." There is only one reason: many operations of users will encounter frequent pop-up windows. Although users did not like this feature, Microsoft still retained it in Windows 7. Isn’t Microsoft willing to accept the “voice of the masses”?
If I were to sum up my views on UAC in Windows 7 in one sentence, my understanding is that it is a good feature, but it is not smart enough. In the author's opinion, UAC's "tedious questions" should be regarded as an unbiased guard. It will intercept any visitor without an identity and ask the user whether to allow a certain file to be written to the system.
But in actual situations, users can make UAC more intelligent when performing tasks, allowing it to perform tasks silently in the background without disturbing you.
In the Windows 7 system, run the Group Policy Editor, expand "Computer Configuration → Windows Settings → Security Settings → Local Policies → Security Options", and find "User Account Control: Administrator's settings in administrative approval mode" in the right window Improve prompt behavior" (Figure 1), and then select "No prompt, improve directly" from the drop-down menu in the new pop-up window (Figure 2).

After modification, save the settings and exit.
Editor's comments:
This method is simple but effective. This ensures the normal operation of UAC without sacrificing system security. The author believes that it is worth recommending to everyone.
