Hi there, spreading this a little wider to see whether anyone else has experienced the same issue and whether anyone has found a workaround. Disabled strong security on the cert works around the issue as the prompt will not occur without strong security
enabled. 
Summary of issue:
When using Internet Explorer 11 on 2012 R2 with RDS or Citrix
and "Enable Strong Security" is set on a Personal Certificate, the prompt to ALLOW or DON'T ALLOW the application (in this case IE11) to access the certificate appears in another users session.
Others have highlighted the same issue:

Hi all.

I'm using Windows 10, Build 15063.

I have a huge folder of media files (some 15,000+).

Every day, a program that I use generates new media files and automatically places them within this folder.

These newly generated files are new versions of existing files (which they're meant to supersede), but are generated with a different name.

I then need to rename each of these files with the same name as the existing file (which I'll no longer need).

For example: The program creates XYZ.mp3 and I need to rename it to ABC.mp3 - a file that already exists (in this same folder).

However, if I try to rename the file with this existing file's name, I'll get a Windows prompt that says:

<Do you want to rename "XYZ.mp3" to "ABC.mp3 (2)"?>

The problem is that I don't want a file with a different name (a "(2)" version). I simply want the new file to replace the existing file altogether. I want the existing file to simply disappear.

Because I sometimes need to do this dozens of times a day - every day - it's a huge time waster for me to look for the old file (ABC.mp3) and delete it, and then go back and rename the new file (XYZ.mp3) with the name of the deleted file (ABC.mp3).

So my question is this ...

Is there any way in Windows 10 that you can set it up so that when you rename a file using the name of an existing file, it will ask you something like ...

<Do you want to replace the existing ... Read more

So a new box recently built, when booted, defaults to the local administrator account.

This is a Windows 7 machine for a Linux guru that doesn't want to be bothered pressing more buttons than is necessary, if you get my drift.

So my question is, after pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del...how do I dictate to Windows that the preferred used is "HisDomainAccount" on our company domain, as opposed to the local admin account?

If I'm not being clear, please let me know and I will try to explain a little better.

this was simple in windows xp.I have a script that installs Citrix web client.Problem I need to copy over the shortcut to users\public\public desktop through this scriptHow can you program the copy to run in the Elevated command prompt mode to do this?

Here's what I'm trying to do

in short: win7client is trying to access win7server without any user/pass prompt.

in details:
On my win7client, I have AutoUnattend.xml that has firstlogon.cmd stored in \\win7server\share\firstlogon.cmd. Previously, win7server was winxpserver. There were no login prompts. After migrating to win7server, things became rather difficult.

I have done the following:
1. "[o] Turn off password protected sharing"
2. net user Guest /active:yes (on both win7client and win7server for testing sakes)
3. tried various combination under "control panel\network and sharing center\advanced sharing settings" on both win7client and win7server

I can log in as guest on win7server, by entering "Guest". Closest I get to what I need accomplished is entering ' net use \\win7server /user:Guest "" '. parameter /persistent:yes does not work in this case. I will need to script this to startup to do what I need. It is ugly and I have not tested and I don't like it. There has to be a better way.

I've considered using a powershell script to join win7server homegroup but I can't find any such scripts.

Any suggestions?

I have written a very simple dos batch file that will merge multiple pdf files into one file using pdftk. The result is an output file named output.pdf. I would like to prompt the user to rename the file after it's converted. for example, the file is merged to C:\output\output.pdf and the user would change it to C:\output\new-file-name.pdf. Is this possible to do?
 

Does anyone know why by default running regedit under a standard user account does not prompt the UAC for administrative credentials?

Under an admin account the UAC does prompt when running regedit, but obviously does not prompt for admin credentials.

I was successful at adding and modifying registry keys under a standard user account. It would seem like restricting access to the registry would be essential for security, any reason why its setup like this?

For the past day or two, I have been seeing command prompt popup windows when I login to Windows XP. I ran a full scan with AVG anti-virus (free) and it moved the following Infection to its virus vault:

Trojan horse Downloader.Zlob.AQXA C:\Documents and Settings\Jacob & Jamie\Local Settings\Application Data\tckihf\nvyvsftav.exe
f.y.i. "Jacob & Jamie" (referenced above) are my 10yr-old twin boys. They downloaded a game called Wizard 101 the night before the virus, popup, and script errors appeared, so I uninstalled the game.
I rebooted and still the command prompt popup window appeared, this time followed by a script error.
(I can attach a printscreen of the lengthy script error, if you need to see it).

I also ran Ad-Aware but it detected nothing. I got a few more script errors when browsing the Internet.
Please advise how to get my computer back to normal--I need it for school & work. Thank you! ~Melinda



 

I work on my friends computers a lot, and i am continuously creating user accounts and they it is starting to annoying me having to go through the process over and over therefore i would like a quicker way of creating user accounts, preferably through a command prompt.
 

Hi Brink,

I just woke up my computer and saw a UAC prompt for User Accounts Control Panel. I didn't do anything to prompt it. I was able to disable it right after, though. Should I be worried that something on my system must've prompted it?

Hi all,

I'm using W7x32 Enterprise in a domain and this only started happening recently so it must be a security update or a gpo pushed setting I suppose.

Incl. screenshots here's what happens.
1. I lock my computer using "Windows + L" or "ctrl+alt+del + lock computer"
2. I see the screen in attachment 1 (01042010001.jpg)
3. I press ctrl+alt+del to unlock the computer and instead of being prompted to enter my password, I have to select what user I want to use (and since only one option is listed this screen is absolutely senseless) - see attachment 2 (01042010002.jpg)
4. I hit enter or click on the user icon
5. I get to the "enter password" screen to unlock the computer - this is what I would expect to see after hitting "ctrl+alt+del" in the first place - see attachment 3 (01042010003.jpg).

Is there any way to remove this "user selection" screen in step 3/4? I know it's just an extra "enter" to hit but it's completely void in my opinion...

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

power went off and now I cannot get past the username and password prompts because i forgot to set up a user name. my system is windows vista
 

I am trying to make a shortcut to launch a program with admin privileges, with User Account Control (UAC) enabled, from a regular user account.

I had previously used 'runas' to launch a program with admin privileges from a regular user account using a similar method in the "How to Create an Elevated Program Shortcut Any User is able to Run" tutorial to create an elevated shortcut. In my case I am launching Process Explorer as an admin user from a regular user account. I had created a batch file with the command, then created a shortcut to the batch file, although the method in the tutorial where the entire command is just written out as the shortcut target is much simpler.

The 'runas' command used to work fine with UAC turned OFF. However it does NOT work with UAC turned ON. I'm not sure why. If I turn UAC off, it works. But if UAC is turned on, even though the application (Process Explorer) is launched with the admin user account, for system processes it shows <access denied> and no network and no disk information. I have verified the command launches as the admin user, since the admin user account username is listed next to the process, and the name of the admin user account is shown in brackets in the title bar of the application.

Interesting I also tried the Sysinternals 'ShellRunas' utility, which also did NOT work with UAC turned ON. I registered the context menu entry, then I right clicked to select "Run as different user...", and the... Read more

I can run an application as another user, and I can run an application as another user.  What I cannot figure out how to do is run an application as another user with elevation.  Both of the accounts are in the administrators groups of the windows
7 pro systems, one os a domain admin.  In order to get around this I currently have to turn off UAC.  Is there a way to choose run as administrator and somehow use another user account?

hi !

is it possible to have an "Elevated Taskmanager" without UAC-prompt on a user-account ?

for obvious security-reasons, i always run on a user-account, except when doing system maintenance.
i want taskmanager to show everything, so it would be really nice if it was possible to create a shortcut that starts it without any UAC-prompts.

any ideas ?

Hi,

I apologize if this is a duplicate or anything. I need to find a way to allow a standard user to execute a program that requires administrative access. I have attempted to set the program in compatibility to run as administrator but this has no effect on the standard user. For this program to execute it will still prompt them for an admin login before it opens.

This entire issue is negated if I make the user a local administrator but this isn't a long term solution I want to be using. Is there a way to keep UAC turned on but to allow the program to run for specific users? I'm open to any suggestions that do not compromise local security and appreciate any help you can provide.

Thank you,

I am a Vista Home Premium user. It all started when I kept getting a User Name and Initials prompt upon opening any Office document (WORD or EXCEL). I troubleshooted the issue, uninstalled and reinstalled Office, and still the nagging prompt panel. Upon Googling the issue, I discovered that I was unable to open or change permissions in the registry User Info file in the registry.

Still researching this issue, just today, I am now, when the UAC kicks in, getting a prompt to enter my OS log-on password! When I put in the password, it doesn't take it and the prompt for password screen returns!! I believe that the registry has locked this feature, and I am thus unable to get the password to register!

This is alarming! Is this an indication of malware or virus? I am presently running Trend Micro, but have no idea how to proceed. I went to try and turn off UAC, but when I click to do this, it prompts for my password, doesn't take the password, so I am not able to access this feature.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am sorry if I am being unclear, but basically I am getting the OS password now--when, for example, I right click on a program and go to RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR, the password prompt comes up!

 

When I mapped a network drive it ask me only once for the user name and password and I accidentally click on Remember password. I would like it to ask me the user name and passord everytime when I mapp a network drive to my Windows XP Pro.

Is that possible?
 

My user folder is named "Mike&Michelle" but because of the ampersand, anything that uses command prompt to access the folder path gives an error unless the path is quoted.

I have recently begun experiencing this problem after updating to Windows 8.1 (although I'm not sure that it's directly related to the update).  I see that similar questions have been asked on other forums, but I see none for 8.1.
The best way to describe the problem is this: while using a particular window (such as a browser window or word processor window), the window will randomly become inactive. Sometimes it will switch back to being active automatically, other times I have to manually click back into the window to use it again.  This is especially frustrating when trying to type or use drop-down menus.  As I type this question I am constantly clicking back into the browser window to keep it active.  The problem appears not to be specific to any particular program or internet browser, but occurs for any window that I happen to be using. 
I don't know if this is relevant, but the activity of one particular background process appears to correlate with the timing of the problem. The process, "HPConnectedRemoteService", is continually appearing and disappearing from the Task Manager. It appears, increases gradually to about 20% CPU, then disappears.  Any given active window will become inactive when "HPConnectedRemoteService" reaches about 20% CPU. Again, I do not know for sure if this process is involved with the problem though. Attached are several screenshots of the processes running, in case they can aid in solving this.

As a single home user, in setting up Windows 10 I was not aware there is a hidden administrator who controls changes to the system.  I discovered this when I went to  open the check disk function.  I have spent hours trying different prescribed
methods found online online for ogetting access to the elevated command prompt - but all end saying I don't have the priviledge.  In another approach, my computer tells me I do not have access to luscr.msc and to instead go to account change.  Here's
the kicker.  Once there, I am not allowed to change from "standard" to "administrator"  - this is a Catch 22 since I am the only registered user of the system.  HELP - I'm not techie, but I'm also not a complete dummy.
