We installed United Parcel Services' program Worldship on our Windows 7 professional PC. We had to disable the UAC in order to allow our regular users (non admin) access. Although the users can open the program and work in it, the program constantly tries to update itself. It requires a Admin username and password to allow the updates to install. This program is constantly updating and installing it's updates. We went into the folder where the program resides and gave the folder full control under the user ID that is being used to login to the PC, but we still get the UAC whenever the update needs to install. We even ran a command to update the registery (from UPS support) to allow the updates to install, but UAC still prompts. Can you recommend a fix for this?

Looks like the Updater includes a manifest to request admin rights. Ask the developers of the tool to implement the updater as service which updates the data without user interaction."A programmer is just a tool which converts caffeine into code" CLIP- Stellvertreter http://www.winvistaside.de/

Thank you for responding. Here is some more information...The issue isn't the communicator software, but the software that needs to update on the PC. The Worldship program will communicate with UPS servers and download a piece of software that usually prompts the shipper to close the program then go back into it, but before it goes into the program it runs an updater for the downloaded software. The UAC comes up asking for credentials even though UAC has been deactivated. This is a PC that is part of a domain. The user who logs in is also a local administrator (not domain), but this UAC is still coming up. We gave the folder full rights for the logged in user, but still can't figure out why UAC is still coming up. Lino Reyes

The UAC prompt is triggered by an UAC manifest in the Updater Exe: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb756929.aspx You can try to use Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit to disable the UAC prompt: http://www.ghacks.net/2010/07/08/get-rid-of-uac-prompts-with-microsofts-application-compatibility-toolkit/"A programmer is just a tool which converts caffeine into code" CLIP- Stellvertreter http://www.winvistaside.de/
