Why isn't UAC more fine grained?


Recommended Posts

When UAC kicks in for some reason, you can optionally choose to view more

details where that dialog displays what looks like a long hexadecimal string

- I haven't confirmed whether it is valid hexadecimal. The point is, its

probably some kind of ID for that particular instance of UAC kicking in.

 

Why isn't that string selectable so that it can be copied to the clipboard?

Is that string stored as part of a log that UAC maintains?

 

Thanks.

because the UAC prompt is shown in a secure environment called secure

desktop where the messages passing is not allowed for security.

Well, is that string stored in some log that UAC maintains?

 

Thanks.

Look in the performance log viewer. More details cannot be

given here. This is part of administrative tools.

I'm sorry, but I can't seem to find the performance log viewer in

administrative tools.

Try HardCopy, it copies everything for us either to a file or the

printer. It is just a print screen utility. You MUST load it before

you need it though.
