Tuning Windows 7: how to bypass the UAC test for a single application

UAC (User Account Control) is a Microsoft Windows component that first appeared in Windows Vista. This component requests confirmation of actions requiring administrative rights in order to protect against unauthorized use of the computer.
In practice, the constantly getting out windows of security requests very quickly lead to the fact that the user begins to approve requests that do not understand warnings, and this reduces the effectiveness of this component to zero. The next logical stage will be its complete shutdown and, accordingly, a decrease in the security of the machine. Alas, despite the development of Windows 7, the mechanism for creating rules for the operation of UAC has not been implemented, but we can, if we wish, create an exception manually.



So: there is a favorite assembly of Miranda, which, when launched, always asks for confirmation for full access. Since I am 100% sure that her actions are legal - we will give her full rights by default. This is done like this:

1. Run the Windows Task Scheduler.
   To do this through the search bar of the Start menu, through computer management, through a shortcut in the Administration section of the Control Panel, or via run -> “taskschd.msc” is a matter of each person’s personal religious beliefs.
2. Create a new task.
   In the window that opens, specify the name of the task + put a checkmark next to "Run with the highest rights." The remaining parameters in this situation are not important to us.
3. Next, go to the tab "Actions" and click to create.
4. Select the type of action - “Run the program” and specify the full path to the executable file, the launch of which we do not want to check UAC'om.
5. Click "OK" and make sure that the action has been added.
6. In this situation, the remaining tabs are not important to us, and skip them, but for myself, I removed the checkbox in the Parameters, which stops the task performed for more than 3 days.
7. Click "OK" and see that our task has been successfully created in the scheduler.
8. Now we need to create a shortcut to start the task.
9. In the location of objects indicate the following:
   

   C: \ Windows \ System32 \ schtasks.exe / run / tn "Task"

   
   where “Name” (required in quotes) is the name of your newly created task.
10. Click "Next", set a name for the new label and complete its creation.

Voila! Now launching the application with this UAC shortcut will not ask us any questions.
