Vista User Access Control and MP

NewUser · 2008-03-22, 03:45

I currenrly have UAC on and I have set everything up with UAC on which means the settings are done under my name.

When I turn UAC off, media portal uses the settings for "administrator" and everything is back to default. Is there a way to make Media portal use my settings? Or what do i need to copy and paste to make media portal use my settings?

Thanks

I think the only way of doing this is by 2 accounts one with UAC, one without.

With UAC enabled you may suffer from failed recordings though (depends where you are recording to), give it a try.

Hi,
hehehe, i had UAC enabled & installed SP1, guess what? SP1 failed to install & i had to disable UAC to be able to do that(so i guess it's just to early to use UAC until all weirdos around it is fixed)

Regards
