Title: W10 - Disabling UAC Completly
Post by: christoffe on March 24, 2016, 08:29:27 am
Hi,

found this procedure on CA, and I hear differences.

1. Open regedit, select Yes if you’re requested run with Administrator rights
2. Navigate to “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Cur rentVersion\Policies\System”
3. Change the value of “ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin” and “EnableLUA” to 0
4. Reboot and your system will get native app performance back.

EDIT: Strange, last night the values were 5 and 1 0, and I changed them to 0 / 0.

For comparison changed them back to 5 /0 this morning, rebooted and XXH forced a reboot again and the values are 0 / 0 now.

Hi Joachim,

I'd like to encourage you to stop dreaming.

A. You did not set EnableLua to 0 because it was already 0.
B. It is that for 7 or 8 years by now.

So, good that you heard a difference. :swoon:

Another advice is to stop listening to the cr*p of that guy. You know ...

The ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin doesn't do a thing when first EnableLua is set to 0.

Lastly :

For comparision changed them back to 5 /0 this morning, rebooted and XXH forced a reboot again and the values are 0 / 0 now.

So not only 0/0 changed to 5/0 but now 5/0 also changed into 0/0.

Stop the nightmares !!
hahaha

Maybe it makes a difference in SQ, but it wasn't made for that in XXHighEnd. Anyway it is in there since Windows 7 (but possibly even Vista, thus right from the start of XXHighEnd).

Best regards,
Peter

He, he

I fumble around a little bit.

So, XXH is setting the value  “EnableLUA” to 0 straight from the beginning, but do not change “ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin” values.

With “ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin” set back to 5,  a nice 3D soundstage is here, setting this value to 0, the soundstage is flat. No ambience.

So we better leave “ConsentPromptBehaviorAdmin” as it is. Sorry for disturbance.

Joachim

It is really no problem; what we don't try we don't know !
But you can imagine that I was laughing a little. And so easy to be in placebo land !

Happy listening ...
